RITA

(Previously titled The Gift Stone) When her village is threatened by the evil Takano Rynn, leader of the Ruling Order, Rita defeats him in battle and believes him to be dead. She leaves her temple life behind to join the masses of Central City, where she befriends members of the Opposition including Parrin, Star and the little robot Beeps. But is Takano Rynn really dead? Or will Rita find herself drawn back to him by a mystical power that connects them both, only to face the biggest battle of all, the one for her heart?

"...an exciting adventure and a journey of self- discovery with heart, humor, action, and an adorable robot you'll wish was your friend." - Liz Konkel via Readers' Favorite
