Clementine Morcerous is 12 years old and the Dark Lord Elithor’s sole heir...and that means she must master the art of dastardly deeds! But when her father is cursed by a clever rival known as the Whittle Witch, Clementine must step into the Dark Lord role sooner than she had expected. She soon discovers, however, that she’s not so sure she wants to be a Dark Lord after all. With the help of more than a little magic and some newly found friends-- including a chicken who’s also a spell book, a sheep who’s really a boy, a boy who wants to be a knight, and a sword-chucking Lady in the Lake--Clementine endeavors to cure her father and carve her own destiny. Oh, and there’s a unicorn...and a unicorn hunter! (Vermont Middle Grade Book Award, 2021)
