Princess of ShadowsThe Princess and the Pea Retold
She went to sleep a warrior. She woke up a legend.
Lina is no sleeping beauty. She’s been fighting goblins in her dreams for over a century, but now she’s awake in an unfamiliar world. Worse, the goblin army is creeping ever closer to the human realm.
To stop the invasion, Lina needs the enchanted gems locked away in the royal treasury. There’s just one problem: to get them she must pretend she’s a princess and win Prince Alaric’s hand in marriage.
Lina will need all her cunning to pass the tests designed by the prince’s mother while fighting goblins on the sly. Can she hide her battle bruises and convince the court that she is a delicate princess? And can she trust Prince Alaric, who seems determined to discover her secrets?

A. G. Marshall
A. G. Marshall writes the kind of fantasy that remembers why fairy tales have endured for centuries. Her stories are filled with enchanted forests, hidden kingdoms, clever heroines, and unexpected twists on familiar legends, yet they never feel trapped by tradition. Instead, they explore what happens when beloved tales are viewed from a new angle, allowing old magic to reveal something entirely different.
Long before becoming a published author, Marshall was the child who could always be found in a library, wandering through shelves in search of new worlds. Stories became a constant companion, and writing soon followed. What began as a love of reading gradually evolved into a passion for creating her own adventures, inspired by folklore, fantasy, and the timeless appeal of characters who must discover their own strength.
