Long ago, before humanity was born, there was a single piece of land called Pangaea. Pangaea, the land before the continents, the first roaming creatures, and humanity. Or so we thought.
One day, deep in the mountains, a cave opened out of nowhere. And out of that cave emerged hundreds of a new species. Humans.
That's right, humans. Because before the dinosaurs, beasts, and even before the Homo Sapiens, there were another group of humans. Humans with unusually high-developed brains and the ability to speak and write. Humans with a completely different set of our DNAs. These humans are called Mind Benders-those with special abilities no ordinary human can ever have.
Millions of years later, in the modern world, the Mind Benders live separately from the normal humans, or who they call the mundanes, after being rejected by our world. The world they now live in is called: Magaia. Thus, our story begins, following Megan Hamphert, an open-minded yet naive teenage girl, who has to deal with war, demons, secrets of the past, and the strange voice inside her head pushing her towards the edge of darkness.
Noor, a dancer in the Royal Court of the Al-Yauzhan Empire wants nothing more than to pay off her debts and lead a nice, simple life-but a chance encounter with the crown prince and his brother brings her into the dangerous world of court politics. As Noor and the princes investigate their uncle and cousin's possible treason, she grows closer to the crown prince, but in order to save the kingdom and the person she loves, Noor will have to risk everything...
A romantic adventure set in an imagined Arabic kingdom, THE DANCING GIRL is a story of court intrigues, romantic entanglements, and secret meetings as Noor and her best friend Amir try to help the princes they're falling for expose corrupt court officials with plans to seize the throne. Noor and Amir are close to having everything they've ever dreamed of...now all they need to do is survive.
