A one-handed girl. Arthur's ring. A land on the brink of destruction. Sixteen-year-old Gwen Davies upends Merlin's ancient plans when she stumbles across an Arthurian relic on a dig in Wales that drags her fifteen hundred years back in time to save the world. It should be a dream come true for a girl from North Carolina raised on Arthurian myths and legends, but Gwen's past mistakes have bound her to half a life-half her family, half an arm, and half her trust in herself.

Produktbeschreibung
A one-handed girl. Arthur's ring. A land on the brink of destruction. Sixteen-year-old Gwen Davies upends Merlin's ancient plans when she stumbles across an Arthurian relic on a dig in Wales that drags her fifteen hundred years back in time to save the world. It should be a dream come true for a girl from North Carolina raised on Arthurian myths and legends, but Gwen's past mistakes have bound her to half a life-half her family, half an arm, and half her trust in herself. To top things off, magic has been outlawed for centuries, especially for women, whose greater magical affinity too often turns to evil. Each time she uses the ring, Gwen comes closer to losing herself in its destructive power. Her only hope is to forge an alliance with a brooding prince, who is determined to keep the invading Irish from toppling the last remnants of Arthur's kingdom at any cost, even if that means precious time spent away from his duties, seeking out histories of the ring in an attempt to stem its negative effects for Gwen. But when she discovers the Irish only seek to reclaim the land for the dying fae, whose elemental magic could not only destroy but heal, she is confused. Could fae magic be the answer to balancing the destructive power of the ring? And why would Arthur have outlawed it? When the Irish are defeated, fae magic will be lost forever. If she fails to preserve Arthur's land, the future and family she has left will never have existed. But which is the answer? The magic of the fae, or the magic of the ring? If she makes the wrong choice again, she risks not only losing herself but those she loves in both the past and future. Previously published on Kindle Vella.
Autorenporträt
Born in Alexandria, Virginia, Angela Millsap learned early on that life is an adventure. She livedin several different countries during her elementary years, including Singapore and GreatBritain, absorbing folklore and mythology wherever she went. No matter how hard she tries, itkeeps leaking out into her writing. A classic sci-fi nerd, she became a Trekkie in high school,then completed an MS in Aerospace Engineering because that seemed the best way to becomea real life space explorer. Her first published work, a small satellite formation flying picture bookfull of Matlab graphs and illustrations, was the unfortunate result. Fortunately, exploration of theunknown, whether that be the kitchen junk drawer or the wilds of Peru, continues to be a dailypart of her life. She lives in Utah with her family, several goats, a shaggy dog, and seasonalcantankerous cheeses.You can follow Angela on her website, www.angelamillsap.com, for writing updates and traveladvice. Or maybe writing advice and travel updates. One can never be too certain.
