Fantasy, meet reality! Foul-mouthed and short-tempered fifteen year-old Lucy Knight hates just about everything. She especially despises the fantasy books adored by her only friend Amber. And Lucy is certainly nothing like the attractive, thin, plucky teenagers that star in those tales. However, Lucy is revealed to be the Mythic, a human chosen to stand guard over The Dark, a powerful evil banished to our world from Aedea, a magical place where all our stories and mythology are real. But someone wants to set The Dark free and only Lucy Knight can save us all from total annihilation. We are totally skegged!
