Product Description Viveka Janssen isn't a dragonslayer. She's a practical Midwestern girl brought to San Francisco by the prospect of an entry-level PR job, and her greatest ambitions involve finding an apartment and making a good impression at work. But Viv's sensible nature is shaken when she comes into possession of the legendary sword Excalibur, and finds herself thrust into the front lines of a shadow war against the immortal armies of Morgan le Fay. Ancient and malevolent creatures hunt the streets by night. Monsters out of fairy tales lurk in subway tunnels. Only Excalibur-and Viv-stand between human civilization and the forces of wild magic. And the dragons are hungry... Review "Well-told, with engaging characters, and a generous mix of humour, romance, and adventure, this is a book that I suspect will have a lot of cross-genre appeal" -Beauty in Ruins "A lot of fun." -Fangs for the Fantasy"The story is well-written with an almost whimsical style and it is clear that Phillips has done her research without info-dumping or the story reading like an interesting history lesson. The lead character is likable in that she feels compelled to her duty by her employer, her colleagues and the mantle of the Lady of the Lake, but selfish enough to make her more human and interesting." -Trollking"An excellent story." -IndieReader About the Author Shannon Phillips lives in Oakland, where she keeps three chickens, two sons, a husband, and a dog. She has never seen a fairy, but that doesn't stop her from looking.
