The Mysterious Separation (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781946193124)

The hunt has begun in earnest.

The kingdom of Fairendale is in disarray. The prince has been stolen from the castle. The king's army was destroyed by the dragons of Morad. The lost children remain missing. But a Huntsman shows up at precisely the right time and offers his services to King Willis, turning the king's attention from his missing son back to his overwhelming desire to find the other missing children.

Meanwhile, deep within the bowels of the castle, a prophetess considers the future before her and the decision that every prophet must make at one point or another: will she die to change the dark future or will she let it remain as it has been written?

The Mysterious Separation is the sixth book in the Fairendale series, a magical middle grade series that explores the world of fairy tales, dragons, wizards, and other magical creatures. The world of Fairendale revolves around villains and heroes--all on a quest for what they believe is right. But one cannot always know, at first glance, who is the villain and who is the hero. Throughout the series, the story of King Willis and his determination to keep the throne is woven into the story of his son, Prince Virgil, heir to the throne and friend to the village children, and the story of fairy tale children fleeing for their lives--children who become what we know as fairy tale villains, for one good reason or another.

But, remember, one cannot always know, at first glance, who is the villain and who is the hero.
