It’s one thing to deal with magic ... quite another to find your fate bound to it. Meet a war survivor who dreams of dragons ... and a dragon who guards dreams. Watch a stormsinger unleash the past ... and a painter record the future. Be amazed by the gifts of a young page ... and the forms offered to a shapeshifter. Marvel as a bard uncovers the truth ... and a priestess finds her faith. Discover that power has its price ... and a destiny involving magic is never quite what you expect. “An outstanding collection of tales of courage, magic, and adventure that should appeal to the sense of wonder in readers of all ages.” Kristen Britain, author of Green Rider and First Rider’s Call “Summoned by Destiny is a delight ... no two [stories] are anything alike. All ... are wonderfully written, and, in the finest tradition of the best of young adult fiction, are sophisticated enough for adult enjoyment.” Mercedes Lackey, author of Joust and Alta “An exciting collection of tales about magic and destiny, and how they weave themselves into the lives of the young men and women brave enough to venture beyond the world they know.” Patricia McKillip, author of Alphabet of Thorn |
