Magical in every way

KD Faerydae lives near Hastings. She is currently taking a break from veterinary nursing to write, travel and spend time with loved ones. A lover of all things fantasy, KD’s gifted imagination led others to advise she write a book, resulting in the creation of Hidden Magic, a fantasy book for children aged 10 to 100 and the first book in the Liberty Realm series, writes Chris Cormack.

Liberty, a realm where fantastical creatures roam and the World’s true magic is active and free…Will good overcome evil? Which force shall prevail?

The humans were not allowed to know the true magic of this World. If they were to experience the World’s true magic, they may damage or even destroy it. It was therefore decided: the magic must remain hidden from the humans… forever.

Eight-year-old Grace Darling lives in the small village of Witern Wood. She and her best friend Christian have had many adventures within the woods but have never once come across the ancient gate that lies concealed behind a large holly bush; the entrance into Liberty, a magical land, where everything is currently not as it should be. An evil force is lurking, depleting Liberty of all that is good.

The malevolent Nomeds feed frequently and with each meal they become more formidable. The noble Zavier, leader or ‘Berthold’ of Maytime Meadow is tasked with the collection of the rest of the realm’s Bertholds. These leaders must gather in front of the Great Prophet, who has foreseen a way in which the Nomeds may be defeated. Zavier selects some of his herd and the small and chirpy Chester to accompany him on a magical and treacherous journey across Liberty. The group face many challenges, a race against time and an increasing threat from the evil Nomeds. Will they make it in time… and what exactly has been prophesied?

Hidden Magic is the first in the Liberty Realm series. “I have a vivid, fantastical imagination, a passion for fantasy and a love of animals and nature. I thought it would be great for others to be able to see things in my way, making everyday sights, sounds and experiences much more magical than they are in reality!”  says KD Faerydae.
