Description

A mermaid, a firebird, and a witch become entangled with the mysterious and powerful Witch Queen, who may hold the key to each of their past in this epic middle grade fantasy by debut author Vivian Zhou.

Atanas island may be quiet and peaceful, but mostly, its lonely. With the outside world full of magic hunters who would stop at nothing to capture a mermaid like her, Atana has never been brave enough to swim far from her islands shores and seek the answers to her mysterious pastuntil a firebird named Ren unexpectedly crashes into her life.

Rens arrival does not go unnoticed, as it has been hundreds of years since a firebird last landed on Earth. Determined to both protect Ren and finally chase the answers shes longed for, Atana embarks on an adventure that takes her and the firebird to strange new islands and entangles them with the powerful yet secretive Witch Queen.

Generous though the Witch Queens offer of protection may be, an invitation to the Blue Palace cant come without a price. And while the Palaces splendid halls and library might hold the key to Atanas past, will she be willing to pay the cost when it risks her chance of a bright new future
