This is a Teen/YA book suitable for ages 12+. Clean behavior and language. It is a Fantasy/Adventure story with a small amount of teenage romance which is not the focus of the story.
Summary: Not-quite-sixteen year old Lizbet Moore expects a boring last month of summer vacation -- and she gets what she’s expecting until a fifteen hundred year old Fae named Eamon shows up in her backyard disguised as a down-on-his-luck garden gnome. When Eamon slips an ancient amulet around her neck, the memories of Lizbet’s many past lives, including her first life as Morgan Le Fae, come slamming back to her to change her summer plans in a way she could never have expected.
Forced to go on the run when murderous monks show up at the back door, Lizbet hops a plane to Scotland accompanied by Eamon, the whispering voices of her past lives, and geekily cute James, the college boy from next door. Not only does she have to dodge the monks, but she’s racing against time and greedy land developers to prevent the entire race of the Fae from being destroyed.
The only thing Lizbet knows for sure is that if she fails and can't produce a few live fairies at the end of her journey, she is going to be grounded for life...and probably for her next life, too.
This seems to be a book young teen girls would relate to with enjoyment and enthusiasm. The fantasy world from childhood continues in 'magic Unbound' to stimulate and enhance youthful imaginations.
Thank you, Ken. Yes, I really did write it for younger teen girls. At this point, it seems that readers have been mostly adults, but I am hoping that a few more younger readers find it.
No lurid sex. How refreshing and how necessary. I'm doing much the same thing with Clear Gold, my new YA trilogy, the first book is due out in Jan 2015. Magic and a little romance a perfect combination.
