It's the story of Jo Maguire, a highly strung, underemployed telemarketer, and what happens when she meets Ysabel, a princess of unspecified pedigree. Jo rather unexpectedly becomes Ysabel's guardian and caretaker, and now must make a place for herself among Ysabel's decidedly unusual family and friends--which involves rather more sword-play than most of us are used to.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCollecting chapters 1 - 11 of the critically acclaimed fantasy serial, this is a twentieth anniversary hardcover edition of volume 1: \"Wake up...\" where the epic first began.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 486\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.06 x 9.25 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 13, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50988791791755,"sku":"9781734945287","price":54.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/2579\/7259\/files\/qqGdrKdi059781734945287.webp?v=1793336003","url":"https:\/\/thetaletrade.com\/products\/wake-up-hardcover","provider":"The Tale Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
