Foreshadow Cynthia Joyce Clay

"I am Princess Royal Burta, and I call out your challenger!" In a time when dragons and gods seduced mortals, greedy kings plot to overthrow the tiny, impoverished kingdom of Allsongs, tempted by the promise of its future. It is said the hope and best defense of Allsongs lies in the person of a small child, Tristabe-airta, the Princess Royal, whose magic always works. Yet, it is the king and sword souled dragon born children whom the enemy kings fear will usurp their kingdoms. An assassin is sent to kill them. One of these children is surely a threat, Princess Burta who trains in arms for the day she can snatch the Allsongs kingdom from Tristabe-airta. While Tristabe-airta knows Burta hates her, Tristabe-airta must do what she can to save her or Allsongs will fall when they come of age. "Foreshadow is a beautifully written fantasy tale that wraps readers in poetry, new mythology and magic. ... If this is the precursor for things to come in the series, we are in for quite an adventure." -Compulsion Reads
