"Everything is finally going right for Emry Merlin. Now that Arthur is the king and her wayward magic is under control, she's enjoying life as Camelot's official court wizard--and as Arthur's girlfriend.

But undertaking a quest to Anwen is perilous business, and our young heroes will face many obstacles on their journey--from dangerous beasts to suspicious nobles to cursed maidens determined to find someone to marry. Can Emry and Arthur save their kingdom and fix their relationship, or will they have to choose between their future and Camelots?"--014+.Grades 10-12.

So when Lyonene is summoned to guide a princess to a glorious marriage, Reed sees an opportunity-a hero who isn't fated to die-and they secretly arrange for Reed to go in her place. But instead of an easy mission, she arrives to find chaos: an old enemy is rising to threaten the Aristene, and one of the princess's suitors is Hestion, whom Reed still loves, and who may yet love her. Reed has already given everything to the order. As oaths are broken and lives are lost, what more must she give to save her sisters, and herself?014+.Grades 10-12.
