Publisher's Synopsis
(NOTE: Paperback illustrations are B&W; Kindle and Hardcover are deluxe full-color.)
In a time of knights and chivalry, in the days of myths and legends, a shapeshifter snatches a newborn girl from her mother's arms and abandons her in a dark forest. Against all odds, a kindly nun hears her cries. Seventeen years later, haunted by a prophecy foretelling her birth, the new King orders his most savage knights to hunt her down. This medieval historical fantasy series unveils the coming-of-age of a girl who can depend on only her wits and instincts against an ancient evil. Volume I of The Talisman Chronicles, an epic fantasy series, will be followed by Volume II early next year. Comparison to the best fairy tales is apt - for the young and the young-of-heart who are old enough to believe in them again. One girl's remarkable story, packed with dizzying twists and turns, is the cornerstone of a remarkable family dynasty, charged with shining a light wherever evil lurks.
