Upon a distant magical island, seven animal races have taken on human characteristics—sheep, goats, llamas, horses, eagles, wolves, and snakes. Medieval kingdoms have been built and alliances formed. Prince Angor, raised by the evil king, desires justice. However, his plan leads him down a road that he never quite imagined. To make things right, he must journey across Choice Island and back again to find twelve gold coins—or, rather, for the coins to find him, based upon the purity of his motive to love in the midst of unexpected circumstances. Will he gather and return the twelve coins to Sheep Kingdom in time to face his destiny, or will he be overcome in the island's untamed wild?“THE TWELVE COINS is an original and deftly crafted fantasy adventure that is a riveting entertainment from beginning to end, making it enthusiastically recommended for personal reading lists of fantasy fiction enthusiasts, as well as both high school and community library YA Fantasy Fiction collections.” -MIDWEST BOOK REVIEW
