A clever inventor-princess. A fairy who has misplaced most of his magic. A dragon mystery in a kingdom where nothing is quite what it seems.
After losing her home and her father, Princess Savanah travels from village to village in a self-powered wagon, earning her way by selling inventions and repairing anything that breaks. She has learned to rely on her ingenuity-and to be very careful about whom she trusts.
Then Savanah arrives in the Hollow.
Every night, the villagers lock their doors and leave baskets of food for a terrifying creature. Yet when Savanah remains outside after dark, she encounters no rampaging monster-only a mysterious pair of eyes that speaks in riddles and appears to know more about her than it should.
The village's pompous Baron insists a dragon is responsible and sends Savanah to confront it. Accompanied by Manfred the Pretty Good Fairy-whose spell book is missing most of its pages-she sets out for the distant Cinder Mountains to uncover the truth.
Their journey introduces them to spells that rarely work as intended, a restless six-foot frog, a dangerously hungry fish, a troll with some rather pointless riddles, and a half-baked biscuit person determined to prove their worth.
But the closer Savanah gets to the dragon, the less she believes the story she has been told.
Warm, witty, and filled with wonderfully imperfect companions, The Wandering Princess turns familiar fairy-tale expectations upside down. It is a humorous fantasy adventure for independent young readers, family read-alouds, and anyone who believes a princess can save the day with curiosity, courage, and a well-stocked toolbox.
The Wandering Princess is a complete adventure and Book One of a four-book series.
