Description
The first book in a new fantasy adventure chapter book series, ideal for reading together at bedtime, featuring Bronte Tempestra, a spirited princess who would rather be a knight!
A fun-filled fantasy quest starring an unforgettable new hero: BRONTE TEMPESTRA.
Bronte Tempestra of the Storm Kingdom is taking charge of her own destiny - she will be the first ever princess to become a knight!
But knight school isn't the fun-filled adventure Bronte is expecting - the knights don't seem interested in saving . . . anything. And when she discovers that the Lightning Steeds have gone missing, leaving the Thunder Trolls to wreak havoc across the lands, she knows it's her moment to prove just how brave a princess can be.
Bronte must face down pompous griffin lords and bare-bottomed cloud-stealing gnomes, monstrous horrorflies and spooky zombits. The future of the entire kingdom is at stake!
It's time for the princess to rescue the knights!
The first book in a new fantasy series for readers aged 7 and up, packed with illustrations. Perfect for fans of RAINBOW GREY, WITCH WARS and THE PRINCESS IN BLACK.

Media Reviews
A fun, imaginative rollercoaster of a read. * Dominique Valente, author of STARFELL *
Tradition is well and truly turned on its head in this funny, all-action romp packed with the quirkiest creatures you're ever likely to meet. And with McCaffery's imaginative illustrations bringing Bronte's exciting fantasy world to glorious life, it's a glorious gallop from start to finish. -- Pam Norfolk * Lancashire Evening Post *
I know this would make an excellent class read for Years 2 or 3 in particular! As well as stunning illustrations, Bronte Tempestra and the Lightning Steeds gives the literary world a brilliant new protagonist you don't want to mess with. I can't wait for more! -- Tom Griffiths * Check 'Em Out Books *
A fun romp through a vividly illustrated fantasy world [..] this book will show readers that any dreams are worth working hard for. -- David Chartash * Inis Magazine *
The story gripped me right from the start and the pace kept going strong until the end. The only problem I have now is deciding which child gets to read it first! ...will captivate and enthral young readers as much as it did me. A great read. -- Melissa Hudson * NetGalley *

A Cornish girl at heart, Bex now lives in Cambridgeshire with her husband, two beautiful daughters and a fluffy cocker spaniel. She might be found riding horses, talking to her plants or eating marzipan. Or not. She is the author of the ISLES OF STORM AND SORROW trilogy, which are YA fantasy adventures set on the high seas. VIPER, VENOM and VULTURE are all out now.
Hannah McCaffery (Illustrator)
Hannah McCafferty has been an illustrator and storyteller from a young age, when she would fill dozens of sketchbooks with characters and stories. She went on to study Illustration for Children's Publishing at Glyndwr University and now works as an illustrator and designer. She finds her inspiration from the characters she comes across each day and from rambling through the beautiful Welsh countryside.
