A Time of Trepidation, Pirates, and Lost Princesses
(2016)(The second book in the My Time in Amar series)
A novel by Nicki Chapelway
Four teenagers.
Two worlds.
One quest.
Since when did survival get so hard?
All Chelsea and her friends have are each other… and magical abilities that they inherited from their fathers. But other than that, they’re on their own. It’s been a week since they were bound to Amar, and they are still no closer to accomplishing their fathers’ quest and getting home.
To make matters worse, the only lead they have is an ominous book of poetry that was written over seven hundred years ago. Inside this book are several mysterious, almost prophetic poems that tell of four heroes who are the only ones who can save Amar from a dark fate. The poems also warn that one of the four will betray the other three, one will be left behind, and one will die.
Full of trepidation over what these poems could mean for them all, Chelsea and her friends journey to the Bextian Sea, the lawless home of pirates and monsters, following a rumor about a golden amulet that has the potential to finally reveal what this quest is. Alas, nothing goes according to plan and soon Chelsea finds herself trying to survive a savage mermaid attack, a vengeful pirate king, and a sudden declaration of love from her childhood friend. All added to the stress of being trapped in a magical world, and the worry that these foreboding poems might actually be prophecies foretelling the future of her and her friends.
This portal fantasy is perfect for YA readers who want a clean adventure, slow-burn romance, and coming of age story set in a dangerous but extremely magical fantasy realm.
Genre: Thriller
