YA Fantasy Fiction Escape into a magical world of sword and sorcery, where fae and ancient magic must dwell in shadows, hidden from those who desire their power while a mad king ravages the land. Eliza didn't know why she was locked away in a tower stretching high above Bardoria. She didn't know who resided in the other spires that were piercing the Bardorian skyline. All she knew was that once she was proven to be a human, she would finally be released. Free to have a caring family and see the wonders of the outside world. But fate had other plans. And on the brink of her fourteenth winter, hardly a week after her first moon cycle, the tower door burst open and threw her life into chaos. Suddenly thrust into an unknown world, where everything she knew was a lie, Eliza must grapple with the undeniable truth that she is what she was raised to despise - A magic-user, a daughter of the moon, a whisperer. Now, Eliza will have to overcome her inner turmoil and discover her true strength as she travels and trains alongside the other Winter Daughters as they prepare to fight the burgeoning Bardorian army and embrace the ancient prophecy of the Midnight Daughter.
Autorenporträt
Andrea Wilson was born and raised in Melbourne, Australia and holds several degrees, including Environmental Science, Mathematics, Theology and Education. Having had a fairly eclectic working life, she has now worked as a teacher for the past 17 years but also runs science workshops and writes books on the side. Andrea started out writing stories for her boys. When she discovered that she enjoyed the process, she decided upon a career change and wrote a non-fiction science book for teens about climate change. She has followed this up with a fantasy fiction series aimed at a teenage and YA audience. The series touches on climate and care for the environment and is female-positive, with matrilineal societies and strong female characters. In a life filled with adventure, Andrea has hiked and travelled all over Europe, completed a 100km walk over 24 hours for Oxfam and a weeklong hike off trail through the wilderness zone in Australia with just a backpack, a map and a compass. Today, after experiencing life in the UK for a few years, Andrea is back in Melbourne, living with her husband, two sons and their pet Labrador. In her free time, she enjoys reading and spending time outdoors with her family, hiking, foraging and rough camping. She also plays piano, enjoys spending time with friends and attending music festivals at home and abroad. As far as the future is concerned, Andrea wants to become an established writer, buy a large caravan and travel Australia with her family for a few years before travelling internationally with them.
