NOVELS

Amara and the Giant's Ring: The Blue Mist by Repplinger, John
ISBN: 9798987858332
Publication Date: June 15th, 2023
Amara wanted nothing more than to escape her horrible life of slavery. In her bid for freedom, an eclectic group of orphans, known as the Band of Brothers, take her in and help hide her identity. She discovers her father's bracelet which he died protecting, mysteriously tied to her belt. Instead of telling her new friends, she hides it and wakes to find the bracelet firmly clamped below her elbow and her arm missing. While Amara struggles to find her place in life, she discovers a blue mist that manifests from the bracelet. She learns to control it and change it into any shape imaginable. However, those who seek to retrieve the bracelet will stop at nothing to discover its hidden secrets.
