Stone

Why would a princess eat a stone? Midmun was once the magical capital of the world, so why doesn't magic work? Princess Niren's marriage was arranged at the time of her birth, so why have seven... eight... NINE princes come courting? Niren must wed to become queen, so why is she seeking magical protection against falling in love? Each of the princes has certain gifts, and everyone involved will be tested. Which of the princes can break through the wall around Niren's heart, and how will he manage that without breaking her heart, as well. Fans of fantasy and fairy tales will enjoy Nicole B Hicks' first novel, which explores themes of fear, risk and reward, good versus evil, and overcoming who we were for who we would like to become.
