Synopsis

Sadie Larcen and her family are slowly recovering from their life-altering trek to the Tethered World. That is until their aunt arrives clutching a mysterious letter and sporting a black eye. The letter that Aunt Jules shares with the family writhes with sinister implications. A new and menacing enemy has slunk from the shadows and is conspiring to seize the most powerful piece of weaponry in the land: The Flaming Sword of Cherubythe. The sword must—at all costs—be kept from the enemies who lust for its power.The threat extends to Sadie’s autistic brother Brock. As High King in training, he now resides in the Tethered World, within close proximity to the sword. It’s apparent that drastic measures will be required by all in order to protect what’s most important. Can Sadie once again confront her disabling fear, stare evil in the face, and walk away whole—let alone alive? How can one teenage girl and her family save a sword with the potential to start a world war? Will lines be crossed even as Sadie’s faith is tested? Sadie knows it’s going to take a lot more than strength, grit, and courage to survive.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Heather L.L. FitzGerald is excited to introduce readers to the realm of The Tethered World. She has always possessed the “what if” gene and an overactive imagination. As a homeschooling mother of four, she spent a lot of time immersed in reading stories to her kids while percolating quite a few of her own. Now that the kids are (mostly) grown, she’s enjoyed getting to spend more time pursuing writing, while her husband of 26 years cheers her on. Living near the big city of Fort Worth, Texas has afforded her family some special opportunities in the home school community. Over the last 12 years, Heather has taught ballet at a fine art school for homeschoolers—a large academy with nearly 900 students. Heather may be a Texan now, but she grew up in the Pacific Northwest, and used her beloved hometown of Orchards, Washington as the (above ground) setting for The Tethered World. Local landmarks like Beacon Rock and Burgerville make an appearance in her adventure, while one of her book’s quirkiest characters, Aunt Jules, is based on her best friend that still lives in the area. Some of Heather’s favorite fantasy series include Gregor the Overlander, from Suzanne Collins (yes, she loves The Hunger Games, too!), The Wingfeather Saga, from Andrew Peterson (who’s music is equally moving), and The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis (her favorite of all: The Magician’s Nephew). Besides reading, writing, and dancing, Heather enjoys most creative outlets, such as painting, cooking, and decorating. One day she also hopes to add “travel” to her list of regular hobbies. In the meantime, drinking coffee is a cheaper habit—er—hobby, that she enjoys with much enthusiasm.
