Book Description:
For almost-16
year-old Anne Devans, the annual Renaissance Faire means three things--her dad
spending weeks in the smithy, her bipolar mom doing some manic costume making,
and another ruined birthday for her and her twin sister, Mary.
This year, Anne
wants things to be different, and she's going to do things her way. On the eve
of the Faire, Anne, along with a reluctant Mary, conjures up a spell that will
make their 16th birthday party a whirlwind event. Little do they know that it's
a literal request.
After the mini
tornado in their room subsides, the girls realize they've invoked the power of
the Gemini Twins, Castor and Pollux. That's the good news. The bad news is they
also caught the attention of a sorceress named Zeena who has been collecting
children born under each Zodiac Sign to enhance her power. Once she captures
Anne and Mary, Gemini twins, the entire Zodiac, and the world, will be hers.
Anne leads the
fight against Zeena, but her one-sided decisions could throw them into a world
so far from home, even the Renaissance Faire would seem like a brilliant
vacation. Between managing their new Zodiac powers, dodging their manic mother
and trying to stop Zeena, they'll get a 16th birthday they'll never forget.
