Still disguised as a boy, Alanna becomes a squire to none other than the Prince of the Realm. Prince Jonathan is not only Alanna's liege, he is also her best friend - and one of the few who knows the secret of her true identity. But when a mysterious sorcerer threatens the prince's life, it will take all of Alanna's skill, strength, and magical power to protect him - even at the risk of revealing who she really is... Filled with swords and sorcery, adventure and intrigue, good and evil, Alanna's second adventure continues the saga of a girl who dares to follow her dreams - and the magical destiny that awaits her.
