    The Prince's Invite Trilogy Series

    By Sarah Scheele

    About this series

    Have you ever toured a place and wondered what would have happened if you'd actually lived there?

     

    I once visited the country of Spain with my aunt and cousins. While there, I wondered what our lives would have looked like had we lived in historical instead of modern Spain. This story is filled with poetic license and places real people and real locations into the Spanish historical setting of the places I toured.

     

    Victoria is a teenage duchess who lives in the Alcazar in Segovia with her parents and many sisters. But their peaceful lives are shattered when it turns out the young King, the son of the haughty and cruel Phillip II, is out to get them. Victoria's father, the duke, owns something that could threaten the succession.

    When she is warned by a hired assassin who has a strange fondness for her sister, Victoria travels incognito with a group of tourists. A visit to the royal court, a midnight escape, and the help of a handsome prince will bring her family back together and restore it to royal favor.

     

    Both based in fact and entirely fictional, this book is a tribute to an unforgettable summer: to a country that I was privileged to visit: and to the many people who appear in the story's pages in historical disguise.

      This story is a sequel set 1000 years after the third Palladia book.   Life after the apocalypse is supposed to be simple.   World collapse is absolutely bad news. A disaster of the worst order, generated by the rise of engineered mutants who created an autocracy with the sole purpose of trampling on humans. Inevitably, the world is filled with so many injustices you lose track when counting them on your fingers. Humans are also said to be extinct. And mutants are supposedly oppressors, never victims. Oh, and mutants are never out to get each other, only humans. In short, there can be a lot of assumptions about the distant future.   The one thing that is certain, though, is that this bleak future world has a generous helping of social inequality. In a pair of novelettes, two girls (Lucy a human and Alyce a mutant) find themselves tangled up with the rich and famous of the millennium following ours. Lucy is a bubbly and reckless girl who befriends every boy she meets, and Alyce is patient and tolerant to an extreme. But Lucy has a little nefarious scheme up her sleeve and Alyce, it seems, does have a limit to her patience after someone tries to kill her simply for being related to someone else.   I mean, who wouldn't get annoyed by that?

    Author

    Sarah Scheele

    ​Sarah Scheele is the author of numerous books for younger readers. Her books often appeal to a "for the whole family" sensibility making them accessible to adults, as well as bridging numerous age subcategories within YA, from Middle Grade to New Adult.  She lives on a third-generation family farm in Texas, was homeschooled long before other people had even heard of the idea, and grew up surrounded by big blue skies, winding gravel roads, and the great classics of literature. Her independent, somewhat isolated existence meant the friends she made in these books--titles as varied as Little Women and The Lord of the Rings--had a reality to her almost equal to the close-knit circle of people she knew in real life. This sense of respect for people in general, which sprang from having very few in her life, permeates her books with emotional nuance and terse interactions between people expressed with simplicity. In her style of fiction, every detail matters--most of all the little things and the things we take for granted.  A published author for the last 15 years, she has an extensive repertoire of young adult fiction titles, divided into four trilogies. 2023 saw the beginning of the publication of complete trilogy editions for the first three trilogies. Her next standalone title will be Temmark Osteraith, the third book in the Prince's Invite Trilogy. She was also for 8 years a Pomeranian owner--and Pom would undoubtedly have said she was a devoted fan as well.  Her website is www.sarahscheele.com and her newsletter can be subscribed to by email by visiting the website or by RSS here http://feeds.feedburner.com/SarahScheelecom-News
