His cousin, cursed by the corrupted Fairy King he serves, spends each day in anguish. The responsibility of remedying this falls to Sorem--Killing the Fairy King. Sorem can't do it directly and risks the wrath of all the fairies. He must find a scapegoat. Opportunity arrives in the form of a naive hunchback, perfect for sending off to his doom. But the hunchback isn't alone. His beautiful, and possibly stolen, wife dutifully travels by his side. Not only is her comings and goings carefully monitored, her husband keeps her barely dressed as she frequently answers his physical needs. This is no behavior for a princess. She awakens a sense of longing in Sorem that he'd never encountered. But should her husband visit a slight on the fairies, all that belongs to him will suffer--including her. The race is on for Sorem to find a way to set her free of the enchantment she's under and help her realize that gorgeous princesses deserve--belong with--handsome princes. Not hunchbacks.

But that's to be expected in a world where technology and magic makes body goals and perfection attainable. ***** Andrea's mother has high hopes for a male heir to lead their household. Andrea must find a husband--and fast. Without a perfect body, however, there are few prospects. For Andrea, on the verge of being disowned, the inability to control something as simple as her weight further exemplifies her other failings. She heralds from the noble class, lovers of tech who frown upon mingling with the servant magic wielders. But with only one year to secure the title of the estate, Andrea has few options. Opportunity arrives when a damaged magic wielder named Tanner comes to her estate looking for work. Servants of his creed wouldn't dare associate with nobles usually. Andrea's head tells her to be suspicious, but Tanner, who's easy on the eyes, looks like a great opportunity. He also takes interest in Andrea, something no one else does. For the first time in Andrea's life, everything seems possible...if only she could quiet that stupid voice in her head warning this is too good to be true. What price would you pay for perfection?

One of my fairy friends is LadyByrd, whom I've given this name because of her wondrous feathered wings all in exquisite blues, greens, and reds, streaked with hints of orange. It's very striking to see her wings outstretched and catching the light, setting in motion a brilliant dance of colours on her feathers. You could say she's an oddity or, as she would put it, unique among her kind, preferring the company of humans to other faes."

The topics covered in this new handbook pertain to issues such as love and marriage, belief in God, hell, and the devil, education, lordship and servitude, Christianity versus Judaism and Islam, health, medicine, the rural world, the rise of the urban class, travel, roads and bridges, entertainment, games, and sport activities, numbers, measuring, the education system, the papacy, saints, the senses, death, and money.
