Trapped in a dangerous world. Hunted by a sorceress queen. Trust may be their only weapon. Lucy and Dee are no longer visitors in the magical world of Sericea--they're fugitives. Stranded far from home, the two friends are forced into hiding alongside the young emperor Yidi as they flee Xixi, his ruthless stepmother and a powerful sorceress determined to crush all opposition. Disguised as ordinary travellers, they set out across a land simmering with unrest, where whispers of rebellion spread as quickly as fear. Their only hope lies beyond the borders of safety, in the legendary Caves of Wonder, where a fabled warrior known as the White Tiger may hold the key to stopping Xixi's rise to absolute power. But the road is treacherous. Lucy's growing fire magic draws dangerous attention. Dee's careful plans are tested at every turn. And as secrets surface and loyalties strain, the friends must decide how much they are willing to risk--not just for Sericea, but for each other. Lucy and Dee: The Caves of Wonder is a fast-paced middle grade fantasy adventure about friendship under pressure, courage in the face of tyranny, and the cost of standing up to power. "A deftly crafted and thoroughly fun read ... especially and unreservedly recommended for elementary school, middle school, and community library Fantasy Fiction collections." - MBR Midwest Book review
