Amethysia the Gem
By Shay Lynn Dinning and L.A. Stands
Felicity and her best friend Hope are both turning fifteen, and they’re celebrating with one sensational birthday bash. But when the two amethyst pieces their moms gave them as birthday presents are joined together, the amethysts manifest a power the girls knew nothing about, bringing their model horses to life. Just when they think their birthday party can’t get any weirder, they find themselves transported to the mysterious world of Amethysia.
In this coming-of-age fantasy, two teenage girls come to the rescue of Amethysia, an unusual world with unforgettable creatures, ancient magic, hidden artifacts, one wizard, and two rival princes. The whole kingdom is counting on Felicity and Hope to help them win the fight against an irrepressible dark force. Soon, the girls come to the attention of Dismala, an evil witch bent on recruiting one of Amethysia’s princes to her cause. As things escalate, the girls discover a power within themselves they never knew they possessed. But there is much more to this world than meets the eye, and they soon learn how much they need the strength and support of the whole kingdom — every creature, from the kind and gentle crystalights to the highest prince. An archaic prophecy sends the girls on a dangerous journey to find the gem before it is too late, but Felicity and Hope wonder how much they will have to sacrifice… and whether they will see home again.
