Alex McGilvery has been reading since before he can remember, and writing almost that long. He has published 18 books and is author and editor at his imprint Celticfrog Publishing. He lives in Kamloops with his dog and the stories clawing their way out of his head.

The Unenchanted Princess is the tale of a princess born without an enchantment in a magic land where all royalty is surrounded by enchantment. Alexandra refuses to give in to her parents' schemes to find her an enchantment or marry her off to someone willing to overlook her lack. She runs away to escape, but soon learns she is at the heart of a struggle to control the Magic Lands.

Together with the Frog Prince, a Prince Charming who is turned into a crow and a young woman from a land where magic is forbidden, she must learn how to defeat her enemy and dispel the last enchantment.

The Unenchanted Princess

Rapunzel went to her room to pack as soon as Alexandra had suggested she and Jordon seek out the Fairy Council. Jordon sat on the headboard and watched her.


"At least as a crow, I don't have to pack anything," he said. Rapunzel tossed a cushion at him and picked up the pack.


"I travel light as well, dear crow, but walking will be slow. I have some experience with riding; do you think the school will give us a horse?" She hefted the pack, "I would rather the horse carry it all."


They headed to the kitchen to gather some food for the journey. The cooks were happy to help, so Rapunzel carried two packs to the stable. Jordon talked the bemused stable hand into choosing a quiet, strong mount for their quest. Soon they were riding north to see Princess Avi. As they rode, Rapunzel talked to Jordon about her life before arriving in the Magic Kingdoms.
