The Girl Who Broke the Dark: An Epic Fantasy Adventure (The Royal Mages Series Book 1)

***Winner of a Literary Titan Book Award*** ***Second Place, Book Fest Awards*** ***An IndieBRAG Medallion Honoree*** ***Finalist, Readers' Favorite International Book Awards*** On her eighteenth birthday, Princess Eliana is ordered to enter the underworld—and wake a prince cursed to sleep for a hundred years. She was raised to rule with diplomacy and magic, not to survive a realm overrun by monsters. But the curse binding the prince comes with a deadly condition: only the heir of Ymittos can break it. If Eliana refuses, the consequences won’t stop at one life. Because far below the surface, something far worse is stirring. A sorcerer banished a thousand years ago has spent centuries preparing his return—gathering power, building armies, and laying a trap that begins with the curse Eliana has been sent to break. Now, she must descend into darkness, outwit an enemy who has planned for centuries… and survive long enough to stop an invasion before it begins. Because breaking the curse isn’t the end of the story. It’s the beginning. A reimagined Sleeping Beauty with a deadly twist, The Girl Who Broke the Dark is the first volume of the Royal Mages series.
