Publisher's Synopsis
A Changeling shapeshifter, Ophren, reluctant to even be an "almost" Druid, is given the opportunity to finally escape the life she dreads. Summoned by elder Elves of Silvestri, Ophren must find and rescue a Sun Elf child born of a rare and sacred bloodline of Silvestri and help restore her to a throne destined for her and her alone. Krenn, the Sun Elf in question, begins her adventure with very few memories but a life of seafaring and chores and modest contentment ahead of her. Purchased as an orphaned slave from the city of Arrabel when she was only a very young child, Krenn's life has been one of cleaning cannons, helping the ship's cook, and trying to stay out of the way of the pirate crew that has adopted her aboard the Crystal Queen. With her owl companion, Fish Hook, as her only true best friend, her life of routine and regimen is upended when the ship's captain reluctantly but finally grants her freedom nine years from the day he first purchased her--from the very city where he had first found her, Arrabel.
The quest to return Krenn to her true family and to the Kingdom of Silvestri begins with some surprises, some twists, and unexpected dangers as Fish Hook reveals her true self and her secrets.
