Island of Glass: The Age of Magic

Seventeen-year-old Chiara Dragoni is a master glassmaker of Venice, a position that is both a privilege - and a trap. For the glassmakers of Murano are forbidden to ever leave the islands of the Venetian lagoon. When Chiara's uncle is caught on the mainland and thrown into the dungeon of the Doge's Palace, she must use all her talents, including magic, to help free him. But the gift she creates for the ruling prince of Venice has unintended consequences, and now Chiara must decide whether to give up everything - and everyone - she knows and loves to save her dream.Set in an alternate historical Venice with alchemists, witches and magic, the story uses familiar motifs from the beloved fairy tale "Cinderella" to tell a tale with a very different message.Island of Glass is a Young Adult fantasy novella, the first book in The Glassmakers Trilogy.
