Princess Samara is on the run after a shapeshifter murders her father and takes his form. The shapeshifter also steals the king's ring, which grants him the ability to bring statues to life. This launches the young princess into a quest to find a magic dagger and liberate her kingdom, all the while being hunted by living statues. She makes new friends along the way to comfort the shapeshifter in an epic showdown. I am looking for beta readers for this story. At the end of the story there would be a brief survey that I hope people will fill out and send to me. Once I get enough feedback I will do another draft of this story.
