Until now, Brave Kingsfort has been Captain Average.
Average family. Average school dramas. Unremarkable life.
But when his anger summons a burst of elemental magic, his mom is forced to reveal three unbelievable things: he’s royalty, he has powers and he’s not from around here.
When True Harborsfort falls asleep at night, it’s always the same dream; she’s a magical flying horse. Over the years, she’s learned to keep that peculiarity very quiet.
But after she barely escapes a ruthless attack on her school, everything changes. Including herself. In terrifying ways. So why does it feel so good?
Separated from everyone they love, Brave and True’s worlds collide as they reluctantly embark on an epic adventure through the wilds of Arvalonia to escape the evil of an imposter queen and her enchanted forces.
Nothing will ever be average or unremarkable again.
The Dangers of Being Brave & True is book one in The Broken Spell, a six book elemental magic series for teen and young adult readers who love alternate worlds, mages and magic, coming of age tales and forever friendships.
“A standout in the young adult fantasy genre, offering a fresh take on elemental magic and royal intrigue. J.M. Goldie has crafted a compelling tale of courage, self-discovery, and the complex dynamics of friendship and family.” ~LibraryThing Review
