THE STOLEN PRINCE OF CLOUDBURST
A magical fantasy featuring a delightfully earnest protagonist who is determined to save her school from the wicked and wily Shadow Mages.
Esther Mettlestone-Staranise is looking forward to another year at the Katherine Valley Boarding School, but when she arrives, she finds a lot of strange and unsettling changes.
For one, her teacher may or may not be an ogre, and she is most certainly out to get Esther in as much trouble as she possibly can. Then there's the new girl, who is a Whisperer, and rumors of a Spellbinder hiding among the students. Reassuring, for as long as the Spellbinder is there, the students are safe from the wicked Shadow Mages who have suddenly appeared in the valley.
When the Spellbinder falls sick, Esther takes it upon herself to protect the school from the encroaching forces of darkness; but she's soon in over her head when she discovers that it's not only Shadow Mages, but an ancient and terrible Fiend that wants to drown all the Kingdoms and Empires. How can Esther - who is not a Spellbinder, or a Faery, or a Whisperer, but just Esther - save her world when she's utterly ordinary?
Jaclyn Moriarty grew up in Sydney, Australia, with four sisters (including authors Liane and Nicola Moriarty), one brother, two dogs, and twelve chickens. She studied law at the University of Sydney, Yale, and Cambridge, and worked as an entertainment lawyer before she wrote the Ashbury High novels, including THE YEAR OF SECRET ASSIGNMENTS, THE MURDER OF BINDY MACKENZIE, and THE GHOSTS OF ASHBURY HIGH. She still lives in Sydney with her son, Charlie.
