THE QUERY: MAVORNIA RESURRECTED

Over time, I will be be posting excerpts from Mavornia Resurrected.  I will also be composing little stories about my past and future (possibly including descriptions of the ripping, pulling, tearing, pushing and stretching currently going on in my abdomen - enjoy!).  But for now - here's a summary of the work that has been my focus for a long...long...long...time.

Hook and Summary: MAVORNIA RESURRECTED

Hours before her wedding, Princess Lockrey loses both her fiancé and her father.  Alone for the first time, she discovers she is at the center of a battle for the world of Mavornia that may require her to sacrifice more than just her life…

Intelligent and brash, Lockrey Margathom wants a life of adventure and the respect of her people; as a woman, though, she thinks her only choice is to marry well and accept a limited role in the kingdom.  But on the eve of her wedding, the princess is framed for her fiancé’s murder just hours before her father, the king, succumbs to battle wounds.  After escaping from prison, Lockrey has no alternative but to obey her father’s last command: to recover stolen artifacts – ancient keys – from the warlords of the North.  The keys will unlock the mystical Book of Glionnacht, which could unleash demon spirits bent on destroying the world.  As Lockrey journeys across Mavornia, she comes to understand that it was never her fate to be a queen; she is meant to be a savior.  But to fulfill her destiny, Lockrey will be asked to make a choice – one that puts at risk not only her own life, but all life in her world.

Well done. What a wonderful start. And...you've been published. Looking forward to tales of murder, intrigue, love, fantasy, and philosophy.
