Summary

Award-Winning Fantasy Features a Dangerous Fairy Quest and World-Changing Prophecy! Crossover is the first book in an exciting new trilogy that begins with fairies on a quest for their wings, who are unknowingly at the center of a forgotten prophecy that will change two worlds forever. In the best traditions of high fantasy and the immortal quest, the first book of this suspenseful new adventure weaves a contemporary and complex saga where fairies struggle through nine increasingly dangerous rites to earn their wings, even as the shadows of a forgotten prophecy gather to change their world. The quest follows Danai and her friends as they confront the Rites, their own fears and beliefs, and archaic traditions in their quest for their wings. From the whip-crack of the Hunted Rite, through the final gut-wrenching Rite of Krisalys, they are determined to succeed - or die trying. Filled with humor and unexpected twists, Crossover puts a creative and contemporary spin on familiar fantasy characters, challenging them to overcome emotional and cultural problems that in many ways parallel those faced by people and society today. From "coming of age" issues, to life and death decisions, to generational differences and the clash between traditional and "new ways" of thinking, the fairies struggle with determining what are the "right" choices - and the answers are not at all easy. Receiving five-star reviews, this suspenseful fantasy adventure is a great book for both Teens and Adults! The second book is scheduled for release in Summer 2009. * Faerie Magazine says that Crossover is "a fiercely entertaining journey of a book... if you choose to read this book you will not want to put it down." *Readerviews.com describes Crossover as a "highly original, action-filled novel, with underlying themes of individual choice, temptation, love, and self-growth... I give it a resounding "Wow!" * Chart Magazines says, "Engrossing storytelling and great attention to detail put Crossover among the top tier of fantasy books, on par with the famous works of Tolkien."
