The Girl on the Dock: A Dark Fairy Tale

Returning to the home of her grandfather after her final school year, Petra Morganstern is a changed young witch. Confident in her recent choices, yet plagued by dreams of what they cost her, Petra is unsure what to do with the rest of her life. Petra’s one ray of hope is her young step-sister, Izabella, whose simple-minded charm is only offset by the awful Phyllis, her hateful mother. Desperate to protect Izabella from the increasing rages of Phyllis, Petra struggles to find balance between the forces that seek to rule her heart. Will she cling to the choices she has already made, upholding good over her own greatest desires, or will the ghost of power and revenge, always at work in the back room of her mind, be her final undoing? As things spiral out of control, Petra finds herself confronted with the unforgiving force of destiny, thrusting her into the ultimate choice one more time. Only this time, no one will be there to save the day. This time, the choice will be Petra’s alone.

5Girl on the Dock  Nov 23, 2008
By kaydle50
A thoroughly enjoyable read. The characters were believable--to the extent I cared what was happening to them. Had to read the book in one sitting and when I got to the end I cheered. I recommend this novella and look forward to more offerings from this author.

5One of the Greats  Mar 05, 2009
By M. Lester
Girl on the dock is a spin off of a great fanfic. But in some ways the Girl on the dock is better then the story that it was born from. So if your looking for another magical tale after harry potter look no futher. Because this book will keep you hooked even after your done reading it. It will leave you wanting more of the Girl on the dock. So don't just sit there order this book before you need your own wishing tree to know what happens in this terrific book.

5I Want More  Dec 04, 2011
By jdwok
Petra is a fascinating character, engaged in a fight with her own inner demons, which most of us can sympathize with. Her little sister, Izzy, is charming and mysterious, leaving us to wonder just how much latent magic lies in her innocent "muddle" soul. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and would recommend it to all ages. I am really hoping for a sequel.

5Phenomenal  Jun 30, 2010
By kissmeimellyo
I loved the book, to put it in the most basic terms it was a must read for any JP fan. However, if you haven't read the other books and you've just stumbled upon this. You may want to read those before you delve into Morgan's (Petra's) world.

3If you are a James Potter fan, this book is for you  May 04, 2010
By Theresa Dorman
A must read before reading the third installment of the James Potter series. It was well written and I love the main characters. The only bad thing I can say about it was that it was not long enough.
