This volume contains The Squire & His Magical Library and the novella The Knight & HIs Magical Armlet. What if you could read any book in the world....even the ones that haven't been written yet? What is Rian's fate? Despite the druids' prediction that Rian would become a great warrior, he hates the king's training program. After the first year's Trials, humiliated and angry, Rian flees the other squires to hide in the cellars...where he finds a magical library and a wren-like Fae who explains that he can choose his own fate. Each year, one figurine crumbles and one possible fate disappears because of the choices he's made. He should be able to make the Warrior disappear before he turns eighteen, right? Meanwhile, Rian helps two very different princesses-one bent on becoming a warrior to seek revenge, and the other imprisoned by blindness. His magical library reaches through time to provide books that match his changing questions. As Rian's own fate becomes entangled with his friendships, the figurines vanish one by one. As the years go by, does he have any choice left about his own future-and what will the library answer? Read now, to journey back to 3rd-century Ireland with a reluctant young hero! With characters based on Irish mythology, this historical fantasy has plenty of action but no gore. It takes place in the same world as the other "Castle in Kilkenny" books, but is the earliest book featuring these characters, so is a true stand-alone.
Autorenporträt
Characters you connect with. Adventure. Love. Family... And endings that are more than a sugar rush. When Christy Matheson is not throwing ordinary characters into fairy tales, she is busy raising five children. (Very busy.) She writes character-driven historical fiction with and without fantasy elements, and her "fresh, smart, and totally charming" stories have won multiple awards.Christy is also an embroidery artist, classically trained pianist, and sews all of her own clothes. She lives in Oregon, on a country property that fondly reminds her of a Regency estate (except with a swing set instead of faux Greek ruins), with her husband, five children, three Shelties, one bunny, and an improbable quantity of art supplies.
