She was solely created to guard a legendary relic. But when a rogue thief from Earth disrupts her dreary world, her job won't be the only thing she loses.

There’s only so much for a bored three-thousand-year-old fairy to do in the forest.

A nameless fairy dubbed “Magenta” knows she only exists to serve a specific purpose. To guard the most powerful relic in the land of Arcadia. And for thousands of years, she's succeeded in fending off even the most dangerous of threats.

But when a rogue stranger from Earth offers her something much more precious in exchange for the relic, will she accede even if it risks her very existence?

Josh Richards is nothing if not resourceful. But it still took him nearly a year to find the one thing powerful enough to ensure his much overdue return to Earth. And if a little deception is all he requires to finally get his hands on it, how bad could the consequences really be?

The last thing Josh needs is a snarky forest fairy with a vendetta. So why can't he just seem to leave her behind?

Embark on a perilous quest through a mysterious, mystical land. A second-world classic fantasy adventure.

For lovers of epic fantasy, adventure, and easy to read feel-good stories. Short books for busy people. If you like Neil Gaiman's Stardust and The Chronicles of Narnia with a quirky twist, you'll enjoy this offbeat, fast-paced YA epic fantasy adventure.

From the Author

Sneak Peek!

"If you keep going, you will die," I called down to him. "No living creature can withstand the magical barrier around the Mystic Lake."
He stopped walking.
"Are you here for the relic?" I queried with a casual tone, leaning against the tree trunk.
"If that relic is a broken little rock, then it looks like I am."
I wrinkled my nose in slight. It was a gemstone, I wanted to correct but resolved my protest as irrelevant.
He'd started to walk but stopped again upon my next announcement.
"No one who has ever tried to obtain the relic has survived these woods. Trust me. It will do you no good to try to get it."
That made him look up at me, way up above him, and I felt my words sink in. I always did feel better up in my tree. The Forest was my territory.
I gave him a regal smile down my nose.
"What's your name?"
I blinked again, surprised. "The last person who asked me that died too," I replied instead of answering. "He tried to reason about how badly he needed the relic. I'm afraid it does no good to explain to me. I can't help you," I relayed. "I can only warn you. Please leave while you can."
He gave me a critical look, studying me from head to toe before his eyes met mine again. "What's your name?" he repeated, his tone gentler.
"Um..."I was about to explain that I didn't really have a name but then reconsidered. "I was called--Magenta."

5.0 out of 5 stars fast-paced YA fantasy with plenty of snark and a hint of sci-fi
Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2021

An ancient fae - whose only purpose is to guard an ancient and incredibly powerful relic until some punk kid comes in and snags it - suddenly finds her monotonous life upended as she is dragged into a crazy adventure. Her attitude reminded me a bit of Tinkerbell sometimes. The interaction between Magenta and Josh was highly entertaining.

This was a very fast, enjoyable read. Fantasy - but hints of sci-fi sprinkled in. This installment did little to illuminate the mystery surrounding the relic or why the boy needs it so much. It kept me interested and guessing in a good way. Fun twists in how the magic works too. Definitely eager for the next installment.

This is the first in novella series. As such there is quite a bit of world-building but it is done well within the context of the story and never feels like an info dump. I was actually hoping for a lot more answers, but I suppose they will come along the course of the series and I will just have to be patient.

4.0 out of 5 stars Never Without an Adventure
Reviewed in the United States on May 23, 2021

Magenta has been protecting an all powerful relic for thousands of years. No one can have it, and those who try to get it, die. Now Josh has come in, tricked her and now stolen the relic. She must try and get the relic back, but it seems every encounter they have outside of the forest leads to a dangerous situation.

Take the classic story of a hero trying to obtain some mystical object and overcoming the Guardian to get it. Now flip it to the Guardians perspective and you have the plotline of this book. This book follows Magenta's point for view and how she is supposed to protect the relic. It is a unique version on a classic plot line, and you are never without an adventure between her and Josh.

A short quick read written in a way that makes it fast paced. Quick short sentences. There is a much coveted magical relic stuck in the middle of a lake. Many have tried to steal it, but a fairy named Magenta has deterred them all and seen many die. She is unemotional and ageless. She doesn't understand why people keep trying. Josh finds a way to do what no else has and takes Magenta along on a fast paced adventure.

3.0 out of 5 stars An interesting start to a new series.
Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2021
Reviewer: Teresa Fallen Angel

Summary:
Magenta was tasked for thousands of years to guard and dissuade anyone from trying to a legendary relic. She was successful until Josh arrived. Josh like many refused to go away, but for some strange reason he succeeded. That one action changed everything placing both of them in peril. This is the beginning of a journey where they have to learn to trust each other if they want any hope to survive. Where their search will lead them and what they will find is yet to be revealed.

This was an interesting story, but adding more of the plot line would have enhanced the readers enjoyment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Time for a change
Reviewed in the United States on February 9, 2022
Our heroine has done her job for thousands of years, but she didn't realize how much she needed a change until our hero comes along. Now she is not sure what she wants anymore.

This is book one of the series, so a good place to start.

This is a young adult fantasy novella with a thief and a guardian. Simple enough in concept, but then these things rarely stay that way. I found the story to be well written and easy to read with an enjoyable, if somewhat simple, plot. Both the characters and setting were intriguing and I would like to know more about each. We only get a taste here, so I certainly hope for more in future books. Put all that together and I rather enjoyed this one and look forward to seeing what comes next.

Highly recommended

I received an ARC from Story Origin for review purposes.

The nameless protector or the relic, "Magenta" was created for the sole purpose of guarding the legendary relic. But one day, a rogue thief from another planet manages to snatch the relic... from right under her nose! Disrupting her mundane world, and compromising her one and only job.

This novella one, of a trilogy of novellas. It was a cute, fun and quick YA fantasy! Due to the shorter story, we are left with a ton of unanswered questions at the end. BUT, rest assured, all three novellas are out. I'm definitely itching to get the next one in my hands. This is a fast paced fantasy, with hints of sci-fi thrown in. The world seems very interesting, I hope we learn more about the other plants and stars as the novellas progress. The characters are fun, Josh seems like a sweetheart and Magenta is learning about herself as we learn about her.

Overall this was a fun and easy read. If you have read Curse of The Dragon Heir, I suggest giving this trilogy a go. I'm not sure how yet, but I do know they tie in together somehow. Maybe they take place on the same planet? 🤔

Pro
È un romanzo breve con due protagonisti simpatici, un Fantasy con giusto una venatura FS che si legge velocemente ed è abbastanza godibile, soprattutto nella prima parte.

Contro
Il World Building è al minimo indispensabile alla trama, la scrittura l'ho trovata non sempre scorrevole.
I cambi di scena sono veramente improvvisi, ad esempio il modo con cui fuggono dal campo dei banditi è un po' (molto) forzato.
Questo "Volume 1" poi non ha un vero finale, giusto un "to be continued..." nel prossimo libro della serie.

Pros
It's a short novel with two funny protagonists, a Fantasy with just a hint of SF that reads quickly and is quite enjoyable, especially in the first part.

Cons
World Building is at the bare minimum, just what is indispensable to the plot; I found the writing not always fluent.
Change of scenery are fast, for example the way they escape from the bandit camp is a itsy bitsy (a lot) forced.
And finally, this "Volume 1" doesn't have a real ending, just a "to be continued..." in the next book of the serie.

I really enjoyed this book, I found the story to be quite different to most, following a fairy who has protected the Arcadian stone for thousands of years successfully until a young man manages to steal it despite all the magic protecting it. She then follows him, trying to get the stone back, but the further from the forest she gets, the weaker she becomes.

The characters are really great and believable, and the world building is fantastic! I especially love the idea of the nameless fairy, nicknamed Magenta, doing cartwheels and acrobatics high in the trees to keep herself from getting too bored!

I’m looking forward to reading book 2 and seeing what they do next
