About this book

By tradition, the ruler of Crystonia will be the one in possession of the Silver Breastplate. Yet the rightful heir has not appeared and the throne that sits atop Mount Heilodius has stood empty for a century and a half. The kingdom is being torn apart as the biggest and strongest races battle for control. Even the herd of peace-loving Centaurs has splintered into two factions, one awaiting the promised bearer of the breastplate, the other seeking power and control over the land. Unbeknownst to all but a very few, the Silver Breastplate has been created. In due course, it is presented to a sixteen-year-old Duende girl named Carling, one of the tiny descendants of the fairies that once filled the land. But the silver breastplate is not complete. In order for its wearer to have the skills to rule the land righteously, the young Duende needs to find the four stones of light that are needed to finish this magical source of power and authority. This is the riveting story of Carling's quest. She, along with her friends, must risk their lives to save their land and fulfill the assignment given to them to complete the silver breastplate.

Sis au coeur du pays imaginaire, cet endroit merveilleux, gouverné par la reine Clarion, abrite une multitude de créatures ailées qui mettent à profit leurs différents talents pour rythmer la succession des saisons. Or, rien ne va plus lorsque la pierre de Lune qui doit permettre au Grand Arbre, source de tous les pouvoirs des fées, de se régénérer est accidentellement détruite. Secondée par une luciole et son ami Terence, Clochette se met en quête d'une nouvelle pierre, qu'elle doit ramener à temps pour les festivités automnales.
