The Golden Orb

25-year-old Gabby's normal human existence became anything but normal when she took the job as Fae Agent for Top Hat in the Fae Realms--magical lands full of wonder and adventure...and danger. When she agrees to find a missing magic artifact for the king of Ouestfold without Top Hat’s knowledge, her secret mission sends her on a journey of discovery that leads her to more than she’d ever bargained for. "The Golden Orb" is a modern fantasy for adults that blends aspects of high fantasy, similar to Tolkien or Robert Jordan, with elements of fairy tales and even mythology. It is both a love letter and an homage to stories and storytellers alike. Gabby spends her time on the Earthplane hiding behind glamours and the anonymity of her IT job while living a double life as a Fae Agent in the Fae Realms for her employer, Top Hat, a mad Fae who tasks Gabby with finding magical items he can hoard in his mansion. After becoming a hero to the citizens of Ouestfold because of her contributions to their victory in the Great War, Gabby receives an e-mail in which the king asks her to find his missing artifact, the Golden Orb. She runs into a co-worker, Lucas, along the way, and together, they battle an imposter, a mermaid, goblins, and even a vampyre in order to get the Orb safely home. Gabby’s strange family history comes back to haunt her as she tries to work out her feelings for Lucas as well as accept the fate that’s been dealt her. "The Golden Orb" is a fantasy full of adventure and romance with danger lurking around every corner.
