The Phoenix Wand: Book 1 to the Spiral Isle Series Angie Droulias

Publisher Marketing: The Main Character in this novel is Amara, a young girl of the Western human tribes who is skilled in both battle and magic. Four great Continents form the world of Algon. Four vast kingdoms which are intertwined, yet never united. Or at least they haven't for over a thousand years. Mages, Elves and Humans alike, despite their differences, acquiesce in regards to a common enemy: the Winterwraiths of the North. These former Mages, banished for their disobedience to Magic Law, became dwellers of the Northern Continent, where they began to spread their dark necromantic magic through snow and ice. Now, not only have they elongated the winters, they have aroused a deeper, darker kind of magic that has been slumbering for eons. They have awoken the ?Shadow? of the great Elder Phoenix, a mythical beast that was once the sacred caretaker of Algon. When Amara, a young girl of the Western human tribes skilled in both battle and magic, is mysteriously saved from the clutches of dark magic by a gigantic bird, the prophecy of the Elder Phoenix is reborn once more. But in order for this wild beast to be summoned, a secret wand must be acquired from the Center, the Great Isle that interconnects all the lands of the Algon. There, upon the Amethyst Altar, shall the wand be selected and activated by the Chosen One, the Phoenix Rider. Amara and her friend Tanin venture across the Western Continent to the magical isle where the Phoenix Wand is guarded. Acquiring new friends along her journey, Amara becomes part of a prophecy greater than what she imagines. But will a young girl's powers be able to overthrow an enemy that is not of flesh and bones?
