Centernia: Return to the Castle

Centernia: Return to the Castle

A dark and elegant contemporary fantasy novel from the mind of internationally acclaimed fantasy artist Rose Catherine Khan, now in newly released second edition. Artemisa Wynter yearns for the realm of Pennsylvania, a world she has only glimpsed through her mother's bedtime stories. Her deepest desire is to leave Castle Aurumice and embrace a life filled with movies, malls, and microwave burritos. However, Artemisa was blessed with her father's fangs and cat-like eyes, making that plan a forbidden dream for the ailurian mage. Time dances on, and a bitter feud has come to Artemisa's home. Castle Aurumice is now entombed beneath a protective shield fashioned by her father's desperate hand. His act of love condemned the castlefolk to the streets as an insidious cancer overwhelmed his body. Now the only one alive who understands her father's magic, Artemisa must return to her mother's strange realm. She is tasked with retrieving her cousin, Jessica Ravenwolfe, a teen with the key to unraveling the energy barrier. ****************** "Rose Catherine Khan creates a lush, engaging world that will draw you in and hold onto you with a tight, but loving, grip all the way through her lively read." ---Keith R.A.

I have been a fan since book 1 was first released a long time ago. The characters all have depth to them which I haven't seen in a long time. The books keep you on the edge of your seat the entire time. I screamed and cried and bounced the entire time I read through the books. The looks my husband gave me a few times was very entertaining." ★★★★★ "Rose Khan has a talent for painting a world that is incredibly rich and fresh with an entertaining, suspenseful story. The plot itself is a good mix of action, humor, drama, and romance with unique fantasy elements and darker themes. Through her writing, she captures a lot of depth in her characters, environments, and worldly mechanics, creating something that is more than just a story. Centernia is both an entertaining read and a wonderful world with an ever-expanding universe. I very highly recommend this series to anyone who wants something that offers more than your typical fantasy book." ★★★★★ "Wonderfully written and captivating.
