Emily has to go on vacation with her father and stepmother to a ranch. Fortunately, she managed to convince her best friends Adriane and Kara to accompany her. The journey suddenly takes a strange turn: in the New Mexican desert, the three mages discover a herd of young unicorns! But a mysterious hunter is tracking these creatures, the only ones able to control magic.
The Crystal City: The Fairy Realms
Adriane, Kara, and Emily have becomes the mages of Avalon. But evil creatures are joining forces to destroy the crystal city….
Kara has decided to give up magic. She can’t control her powers and would rather have Emily and Adriane do things without her. But magic pursues Kara and takes her to the Fairy Realms, where a war is about to break out. Only Kara, the shooting star, can restore peace. To do this, she will have to tame unstable powers, a fire stallion … and his wild heart.
Both books are available on Amazon in the US. However, only All’s Fairy is available as an e-book.
After a month’s delay, the Ghost Wolf e-book is now available! You can find it in the Kindle store, and it’s free if you have a Kindle Unlimited account.

News gleaned from comments on the voyager.world Instagram:
re: the animated series:@avalon.web.of.fandom the challenge is getting a broadcaster or streamer to commit – every pitch takes months to be evaluated and with covid they’re backed up with shows that had to be put on hold – we’ve had a lot of passes but we’re currently waiting on 2 broadcasters at the moment – if we can get someplace to air the show, everything else will fall into place – we never give up [source]

re: Avalon: Shadow Warrior and Adriane:@avalon.web.of.fandom yes you will [see the characters you love] and it’s going to be spectacular🎃 teaser: big chunks of story take place in ancient Avalon at the dawn of magic [source]
re: translated editions of Avalon:@avalon.web.of.fandom yes, Bayard acquired the 12 books for French translation- not sure when 7 is slated; fyi we recently closed Russian translation rights with a terrific company; be interesting to see what they do with the covers [source]
re: the animated series:@neosayo we’ve had a few setbacks on the Avalon tv series. We’re currently exploring several opportunities but takes sooo long to get answers [source]
re: details on Shadow Warrior:@avalon.web.of.fandom no flashbacks, center of the web shifted creating time ripples that overlap events from the past- portal travel is not just a matter of where you end up but when-Status: 1 2 & 3 outlined; manuscript 1 done; but they all need to be written out because of such a complex plot; also features a host of new characters in addition to the regulars who are aged up – [source]
In Tangentially-related News:
re: Hollywood Detective:@avalon.web.of.fandom it’s a cool concept, book 1 was more of an experiment; we have outlines for books 2 and 3 but no plans right now to execute manuscripts. [source]

From Robert Mandell’s LinkedIn profile:
Robert Mandell (creator of Jewel Riders and co-author of Avalon: Web of Magic) added something interesting to his LinkedIn profile: an entry for Avalon: Shadow Warrior! The synopsis, however, is significantly different from what we’ve seen before:
Highly anticipated Avalon spin-off series set in ancient Avalon, before the dawn of magic.
It looks like Shadow Warrior will be a prequel, not the Adriane-centric sequel fans have been anticipating for the past several years.
News gleaned from comments on the Red Sky Instagram account:
re: the Avalon animated series and Shadow Warrior: great question! Both of them are in the works at the moment! (source)
In case you were unaware (as I was), the Avalon: Web of Magic e-books are are being re-released in the Amazon Kindle store. If you have a Kindle Unlimited account, you can read them for free. Red Sky Presents, who now hold the rights to the books, have been publishing them at a rather slow rate.
This Thursday (15 October 2020), they are re-releasing Ghost Wolf. This is two years after they published All’s Fairy in Love and War, which was in August 2018.
Also of note: Red Sky Presents now has an Instagram account! Check out their first post below:
