Book Description
In my route of life, I have encountered much. I have seen myself falling apart, shattered, destroyed and then I have also seen myself collecting my pieces together and trying to adjoin then with the adhesive of time. It took me years to identify the need to write about the same in my way. At times, some instances have forced me to write a two-liner or a four-liner piece and at times, while asking multiple questions myself, I have dived into my thoughts, created characters and instructed my characters to live the life that I am living at present and wrote my pieces of monologues. My brain baby they are, they are my sufferings quoted and written in the form of monologues and quotes and the only purpose of the book is to be with those who are afraid to share their sufferings so that they can relate more and understand that they are not alone.

Determined to prove her worth and eschew her heritage, Ellie applies to the Fairy Godmother Academy—her golden ticket to societal acceptance. But Ellie’s dreams are squashed when she receives the dreaded draft letter to serve as a knight of King Arthur’s legendary Round Table. She can get out of the draft—but only if she saves a lost cause. Enter Caedmon, a boy from Wisconsin struggling with the death of his best friend. He first dismisses the draft as ridiculous; magic can’t possibly exist. But when Merlin’s ancient magic foretells his family’s death if he doesn’t follow through, he travels to the knights’ castle, where he learns of a wicked curse leeching the knights of their power. To break the curse, Ellie and Caedmon must pass a series of deathly trials and reforge the lost, shattered sword of Excalibur. And unless Ellie accepts her witch magic and Caedmon rises to become the knight he’s meant to be, they will both fail—and the world will fall to the same darkness that brought King Arthur and Camelot to ruin.
