A novel by

 
 
Morgan Pendragon just wants a normal life. But on her last year at a Swiss boarding school, one of her classmates is found mysteriously dead. Before she knows it, Morgan's called home to Wisconsin, for the first time in her life.

There, not only does she have to deal with her crazy-weird family, but she's forced to attend a strange school set in a magical world under Lake Winnebago. To make matters worse, she must train with the others to become Knights of the Round Table and fight in a secret, millennia-old war against the Fey - fallen angels with unimaginable powers who'd do anything to destroy humans. And if that wasn't enough, she must do the impossible: learn to make friends.

As the world is falling apart, Morgan must adapt to her new reality before she either goes nuts... or finds herself dead.

Interview with the Author


Q - Tell us a little about the Morgana Trilogy.

A - It's a retelling of Arthurian legends, but set in modern times and seen from the point of view of Morgan, Arthur's half-sister. Being an avid fan of the fantasy genre, I've also added bits and pieces of actual legends regarding the Fey (or Fae as it's often spelled), along with Celtic and Biblical references, as both religions heavily influenced the original myths as well.

The Morgana Trilogy also contains plenty of action and adventures - courtesy of the Knights of the Round Table, of course, and of those demons who won't let them rest - mystery, and a small dash of romance.

But at its base, the book is about a young girl coming of age, granted in a highly unusual environment, who learns that her choices may have grave consequences.

Q - What order should I read the books in?

A - The trilogy starts off with Blood of the Fey (2013), followed by Rise of the Fey (2015), then ends with Curse of the Fey (2019), and each following book starts where the previous one started.

There may be a couple short stories based on some of the other characters to come out in the future, but those will be readable on a standalone basis, so no worries there!

Q - What's the age category for this series?

A - It's a Young Adult & Teen fantasy series, but, really, I just consider that the starting age point.

Thank you for reading!
