Cover Launch: LEGEND HAS IT by Elliott James

Have you ever wondered if magic and monsters might not just be the stuff of legends and fairy tales?

Have you been waiting for a Prince Charming to step into your life?

Well wait no longer. This Charming may not be a prince, but his sword (and his sense of humor) is quick and sharp and will come in handy while he’s stealing your heart. The fifth Pax Arcana novel, LEGEND HAS IT, will be out in Spring 2017.

For John Charming, living the dream just became a nightmare.

Someone, somewhere, is reading a magic book that is reading them right back. Real life is becoming a fairytale: high school students are turning, quite literally, into zombies, subway workers into dwarves, drug addicts into vampires.

John Charming and his motley band of monster hunters are racing to find the villain of this story, following the yellow brick road through a not so wonderful wonderland. And if they can’t find Reader Zero before the book is closed, there won’t be a happily ever after again.

LEGEND HAS IT is the fifth novel in a series which gives a new twist to the Prince Charming tale. The first four novels are Charming, Daring, Fearless & In Shining Armor. If you haven’t had a chance to meet John Charming, check out the first chapter of Charming now.
