Publisher's Synopsis
Perfect for fans of The School for Good and Evil comes the eagerly anticipated follow-up to M. A. Larson's Pennyroyal Academy, hailed by the New York Times as a "breathtakingly exciting novel" with a heroine who "deserves a special place in a new pantheon of capable, feisty and, yes, admirable literary princesses."
A triumphant victory over the witches has proven that Princess Cadet Evie really does belong at Pennyroyal Academy. News of her heroism has traveled far and wide-inspiring a kingdom of grateful citizens and, when the new term starts, a wave of fresh Academy recruits.
While it's good to be returning to the Academy as a second-class Cadet, things are not as they should be. Evie witnesses the vicious attack of an innocent woman-by a trio of princesses. Pennyroyal's Headmistress General, Princess Beatrice, is dubious about what Evie saw-princesses are enforcers of truth and justice, not thugs. But Evie isn't so sure. Then, amidst piles of fan mail, she finds a letter with an ominous threat. A secret society has come out of the shadows with a wicked plan, putting the Academy in peril. It's up to Evie and her friends to unravel the devious plot and save Pennyroyal Academy.
"M. A. Larson has created a magical world of adventure-a world that shows who princesses truly are: people of character and courage and strength. No one rescues Pennyroyal princesses; they rescue themselves."-Reese Witherspoon on Pennyroyal Academy
