Description
When Creel's desperate aunt offers her as a sacrifice to the local dragon, the young woman expects the encounter to be nothing more than a family scheme to attract a heroic knight. But when the dragon actually appears, Creel's quick thinking and negotiation skills earn her an unexpected reward: a pair of simple blue slippers from his legendary hoard. What begins as a fortunate escape soon becomes far more complicated when Creel discovers that these enchanted slippers hold the power to either save her kingdom from impending war or plunge it into darkness. With her fate and that of her realm now intertwined with an ancient magic she barely understands, Creel must navigate treacherous political waters, uncover the true nature of her mysterious treasure, and decide what she's willing to risk to protect those she loves. Jessica Day George weaves a captivating fantasy adventure that transforms a young woman's brush with danger into an epic quest where courage, cleverness, and an unlikely magical gift become her greatest weapons.
