  Dear Reader,
   
  Mom instilled a love of reading in me at an early age, but it was Dad that
  introduced me to the worlds of fantasy. While I will read just about any book,
  put a sword in a warrior’s hand, hint at magic and an epic journey, and I can’t
  wait to get my hands on that story.
  For what you hold in your hands, at the very moment that you read this, is
  the closest that I will ever get to casting a magic spell. No messy ingredients,
  no frogs, no eyes of newt, no secret room deep in a dungeon or high in a
  spire. No sparkly dress, no magic wand, no magic mirror. No, the only source
  of my power are the pages you hold and the words written thereon. As you
  read them, I hope the magic starts to work between my words and your
  imagination.
  If I’ve woven my spell with a bit of art and skill, then you will be lost in
  the Kingdom of Xy, entranced with Xylara’s choices and the consequences
  for her and the Kingdom. And there are more tales to b
