Worlds collide in Lindsey Klingele’s debut young adult novel, The Marked Girl, an exciting fantasy tale turned upside down. Elissa Sussman, author of Stray, calls The Marked Girl “a magical debut with a big heart.” When Cedric, crowned prince of Caelum, and his fellow royal friends (including his betrothed, Kat) find themselves stranded in modern-day LA via a magical portal and an evil traitor named Malquin, all they want to do is get home to Caelum—soon. Then they meet Liv, a filmmaker foster girl who just wants to get out of the system and on with her life. As she and Cedric bond, they’ll discover that she’s more connected to his world than they ever could’ve imagined…and that finding home is no easy task. The Marked Girl has humor, heart, and harrowing adventures, perfect for fantasy lovers and reluctant fantasy readers alike. He’s trying to get back to his magical kingdom. She’s just trying to survive the foster system. Can they find a way home together, or will an ancient evil tear their worlds apart for good? Urban Fantasy Adventure: Experience Los Angeles like never before, where magical portals open under freeway bridges and sword fights break out in the LA River. Fish Out of Water Comedy: A crowned prince trying to navigate LA traffic is only the beginning of the hilarious and heartfelt culture clash. A Fated Fantasy Romance: He’s betrothed to a royal, but his connection with Liv, a cynical foster girl, is a magic he never expected. A Girl with a Secret Destiny: Liv always felt like an outsider, but she’s about to discover she’s not just part of another world—she might be the key to saving it.
