Keeper of the Gate

Be strong. Be deadly. Be the Queen who brings your people home.Froth covers Bess Sonnenberg's long lost Kingdom. One touch, one breath of the noxious fog turns people into monsters, slaves to a dark God imprisoned beyond a shattered Gate. At five, Bess's grandmother taught her how to cast firebolts.At eight, her grandfather placed her fallen mother's sword in her hands.At twelve, she stepped to the frontier-shifting banks of poisonous Froth in a polluted land, monsters lurking in the mists, battle, blood...Froth doesn't wait for a Princess to grow up. Will she survive long enough to become the Queen her people need her to be?Please, Lady of Hope, grant me your strength to lead my people home and shut the Gate forever, so my children need not become strong and deadly.
