About the Book:
“The Missing Fairy Princess” is the story of a 16-year-old fairy princess pitted against a powerful witch. The witch has stolen a potent new mantra developed by a colleague, ruthlessly snuffing out a brilliantly innovative mind. She then hatches an elaborate plot to frame an adversary for her misdeed. Her intention is to exact sweet revenge from her foe and at the same time, get away with the theft. The victim, caught in her vicious web, is doomed to disgrace and a life sentence on a harsh penal colony. Meanwhile, the witch learns from her crystal ball, about an imminent threat from a fairy princess wearing a pink tiara. To ward off that threat she kidnaps the fairy princess, wipes her memory clean and then turns her into a two-year-old girl.
Unfortunately for the culprit, she has goofed up by kidnapping the wrong fairy princess, Merlyn, instead of Ashlyn, her twin. The mistake turns out to be the undoing of the witch because Ashlyn proves to be her nemesis. The brilliant fairy princess exposes the cobweb of misleading evidence fabricated by the witch, ultimately unmasking her.
If you love mystery, whodunit, with a dash of magical realism and sci-fi, this book is for you.

How was it to write about a Princess who saves the day rather than waiting for a Prince Charming?
That is a very good suggestion indeed and makes me rue not having thought about it while writing the story.
But having said that, it would have been inevitable that the Prince Charming would have played a second-fiddle to the Fairy Princess!
Also, one has to be bear in mind that the antagonist is a powerful and crafty witch, to tackle whom it calls for a brilliant mind like that of the Fairy Princess and there is hardly any scope for sword-fighting or physical combat.
Yet, I concede your suggestion has true potential and I would keep it in view when penning the sequel.
