The Road To Gatlen Paul Saylor

All her life, Addylyn has dreamt of a grand, magic-filled adventure, one worthy of an epic Tale. She wanted to escape her mundane existence on the rural family farm with her beloved, yet ailing, brother Tymy and embark on a trek across the continent. Then one day, Addylyn's wish comes true as her dying father bequeaths an Artifact of the Ancients to her and tells her it is the key to Tymy's salvation. But just as soon as Addylyn sets out, she discovers there are other sinister individuals seeking her prized possession. Mercenaries and soldiers vie for the Artifact on behalf of their employers. And there are even Demons! As Addylyn navigates the treacherous path of death and lies, she learns the Artifact may unlock something more than what she was told - and also something different. Nothing goes as she expects, trust is betrayed, and friends die. Feeling isolated and ever uncertain of what the next day will bring, Addylyn suddenly isn't so envious of all those heroes. But for her brother's sake - as well as her own - Addylyn must forge on down...... The Road To Gatlen.
