dc.description.abstract	Alafaya is a novel told in stories spread across generations as one girl seeks to renew the bond between her land and magic. Conthesa is a young girl whose only wish was to grow up peacefully with her sisters on the edge of the woods. When a voice leads her to the infected World Tree, Conthesa becomes caught up in an ancient struggle between the shadowy lower realms, corrupted Kings, and the magic she has sworn to protect. The structure of events and varying points of view play a vital role in this novel. The stories shift perspectives to show how the choices made by some lead to new paths for others. Conthesa’s journey to understand the truth in the connections we make in life and the power they hold, are showcased through her gains and losses as she progresses through the narrative. Alafaya is a collection drawing on fairytales and legends of old to rethink what we know of the origin of myths.	en_US
