The Dark Lord's Daughter
By Patricia C. WredePublisher Description
From the New York Times bestselling author of Dealing with Dragons comes this timeless fantasy, about an ordinary girl who discovers she's the heir to a dark throne, and must find her place between her life on Earth and her magical inheritance.
"A heart-stopping, unique adventure for all!" —Tamora Pierce, #1 New York Times bestselling author
Kayla is just an ordinary girl . . . or so she thinks. When a day at the state fair is interrupted by the news that she’s the daughter of a “Dark Lord,” she and her family are quickly whisked to another world—one that’s chock-full of magic but lacking in technology!
As her family encounters fantastical creatures in place of their Earthly gadgets, Kayla must prepare for the unpreparable: meeting her father, the Dark Lord himself, for the very first time. All Kayla wants is to go home, but she must learn magic to do so. The catch? For the Dark Lord’s daughter, the road to mastering magic is filled with evil traditions.
As she ventures closer to her father, Kayla must decide whether to accept her birthright. Is she destined for darkness? Or can she become a new kind of Dark Lady?

“Very cute. This would be a great book to hand to someone who was just trying out fantasy. There is easy world building just in the beginning and they do a great job of explaining everything as part of the story because the main character wasn’t raised there and she didn’t know about any…”traditions”!
A solid late elementary/early middle school book. Fans of fantasy will enjoy the twist on the Dark Lady storyline and readers who maybe just like books with strong family ties and are also interested in magic will love her relationship with her adoptive mom and brother. Also, this is a standalone so not as overwhelming as a big fantasy series might seem.”
