Krystal's Charge - Aleesah Darlison
Cover
The Unicorn Riders of Avamay
Under the guidance of their leader, Jala, the Unicorn Riders and their magical unicorns protect the Kingdom of Avamay from the threats of evil Lord Valerian.
Decades ago, Lord Valerian forcefully took over the neighboring kingdom of Obeera. He began capturing every magical creature across the eight kingdoms. Luckily, King Perry saved four of Avamay’s unicorns. He asked the unicorns to help protect Avamay. And that’s when ordinary girls were chosen to be the first Unicorn Riders.
A Rider is chosen when her name and likeness appear in The Choosing Book, which is guarded by Jala. It holds the details of all the past, present, and future Riders. No one can see who the future Riders will be until it is time for a new Rider to be chosen. Only then will The Choosing Book display her details.

The Unicorn Riders’ World
• CHAPTER 1 •
KRYSTAL HUNG UPSIDE DOWN, staring at the crowd gathered in the marquee below. All heads tilted upward. All eyes were glued to her.
What if I fall? she wondered as her heart thudded in her chest.
Still upside down, her gaze sought the other Unicorn Riders. Willow, Quinn, and Ellabeth watched her intently. Quinn’s hands were clasped in front of her as if she were praying. The Riders’ faithful unicorns stood nearby. Krystal’s unicorn, Estrella, whinnied and tossed her mane nervously as she watched Krystal.
Krystal took a deep breath. All right, let’s do this, she thought.
Releasing her right ankle, she stretched her leg out so that she dangled by her foot, which was wrapped around the trapeze. The narrow bar was held in place by two long ropes attached to the marquee ceiling. Below, there was no net to catch Krystal if she fell. She’d insisted on performing without it, claiming her act would be more dramatic that way. Now she wasn’t sure her decision had been wise.
Remember your routine, she told herself. You’ve practiced this hundreds of times.
Twirling around and around the bar, Krystal performed spins and turns that made the crowd gasp. Her act was one of many to be performed during Princess Serafina’s birthday festivities, and she was determined to stand out.
Krystal’s confidence grew rapidly. But on the last movement, she misjudged her turn. Her fingers
