Opis

The adventure continues in Book II of the Chronicles of the Secret Prince from award-winning author, MJ Bell. Deston Lesperance assumed that once he defied the odds and bested Grossard, the malicious solitary faerie who imprisoned his parents, he and his family would live 'happily-ever-after' in the land of Tir na-nOg. That's how stories end in the movies. But this wasn't a movie, and fitting in with the fae and accessing his new found powers is not as automatic as he expected it to be. If that wasn't enough, he also discovers Grossard has survived the collapse of the chantry and is more resolved than ever to destroy his family and the high realm. And this time Grossard might actually succeed, for he is not alone. Mordred, an old adversary of the light, has joined forces with Grossard and together they plan to retrieve the Shard of Erebus and unleash the darkness, which has lain dormant since shortly after the creation of the earth. Deston realizes he isn't equipped to take on a powerful sorcerer and an evil faerie, but destiny waits for no one, not even the secret Prince of Tir na-nOg. So ready or not, he's drawn into a new quest and must locate and destroy the Shard before Grossard and Mordred can get to it. With only his dreams to guide him and Margaux to help him figure out the clues, he heads out on another epic adventure, fully aware the stakes are higher than ever. But little does he know the sacrifices he'll be required to make. As his world crumbles around him and his friends fall, he hangs onto one glimmer of hope-that the fae power and strength truly does reside within him; and that he can actually become the hero the fae claim him to be."
