Three years have passed since Annabel defeated Mordion in the Royal Castle and became the Queen Heir of New Civet. That's a good thing, since the Castle spat her out three years into the past. Three years of statecraft, politics, and meeting important people are over. Now, before she is officially acknowledged as the Queen Heir, Annabel will face her biggest challenge: Trenthams Finishing School for Young Ladies.
To win her Staff and Crown, Annabel had to deal with a deadly foe, a slightly self-aware castle, and a more-than-slightly-potty wizard. Now she will contend with corsets, diets, and sharp-tongued socialites; not to mention the Old Parrasian revolution that seems to be brewing in the bowels of the school itself. In fact, Trenthams might be even more dangerous and cryptic than the Royal Castle.
It's a good thing Annabel has the staff, her cat, and her trusty advisor, Isabella…
Staff and Crown is book three in the Two Monarchies Sequence.
