The Story Peddler
*** WINNER: ACFW Carol Award *** *** WINNER: Alliance Award: Readers' Choice *** *** WINNER: Realm Award: Book of the Year 2019 *** *** WINNER: Realm Award: Young Adult *** Selling stories is a deadly business. Tanwen doesn't just tell stories--she weaves them into crystallized sculptures that sell for more than a few bits.

During her final story peddling tour, a tale of treason spills from her hands, threatening the king himself.
