The Story of the Sleeping Lady moves readers with its spells and secret jealousies, beasts and betrayals, and the hidden truth that could unravel a plot decades in the making...


It's a hard thing, trying to find out who you are... especially when everyone else thinks they already know.

Can you escape the violence of your past? What if a single quest changed everything you knew about yourself?

Every child has grown up hearing the story of the Sleeping Lady, and in an effort to fulfill his father's dying wish, Prince Philip and his knights embark on a quest to wake her. He has always known that one day, he will be a good king. A good man. But the further he ventures into the dark of the Great Overgrowth, the less sure he is. Can he do what's necessary to reach the end of this cursed forest? Can he wake the princess? Can he face the evil that hides inside the castle and inside his own mind, or will he be overcome by who the world expects him to be?

Three families broken.

Two kingdoms hanging in the balance.

And the single biggest decision he will ever have to make...


The Story of the Sleeping Lady is a compelling middle-grade gothic fantasy and the first installment of the Heroes of the Source series. Be on the lookout for the next book in the series, The Story of the Girl in the Tower!
