Sixteen-year-old Elizabeth Meyers is an overweight, unhappy teenager enduring a dreary suburban life when her grandmother awakes from a catatonic state and announces that the two of them must go to France and solve four magical puzzles to reach a long-lost prince from another world. Elizabeth doesn't believe this, of course. She has no intention of helping her grandmother escape the nursing home, elude the authorities, find a way to steal passports and fly to Paris. And yet Elizabeth finds herself doing exactly that.

Aaron Michael Ritchey is the author of The Never Prayer and Long Live the Suicide King, both finalists in various contests. His latest novel is Elizabeth’s Midnight. In shorter fiction, his G.I. Joe inspired novella was an Amazon bestseller in Kindle Worlds and his steampunk story, “The Dirges of Percival Lewand” was part of The Best of Penny Dread Tales anthology published through Kevin J. Anderson’s WordFire Press. He lives in Colorado with his wife and two ancient goddesses of chaos posing as his daughters.
Atransformative tale for those who believe in magic and in a young girl'sheart--a grandmother's too.
--KirkusReviews
This isa wild adventurous roller-coaster ride that tests friendships, loyalty,obligations, responsibilities, reality, love, and truth...Aaron Michael Ritcheyhas been able to take this coming of age tale to a whole new level. Theadventure is engrossing, the tension continues to build through the entirestory with suspense and emotion. The characters are unique, charming, and therelationships have a realistic feel to them. I have to say, well done! This isa journey extraordinaire.
--BigAl's Books and Pals (Five-Star Review)
Elizabeth'sMidnight is beautifully written, and I was hooked into the story from the firstpage. Its message is positive and inspiring, especially for the Bethies outthere who have their own Mother Meyers to fear and esteem issues to cope with,and who desperately need to keep their dreams alive. Elizabeth's Midnight ismost highly recommended.
--Reader'sFavorite (Five-Star Review)
By placing Beth's insecurities and growth intoan unusual adventure peppered with equally unpredictable results, Ritchey givesyoung adults plenty of compelling moments and events to keep them engrossed.Too many young adult fantasies focus on adventure without the necessary overlayof strong protagonist interactions or family ties. Elizabeth's Midnightembraces both and wraps all in a cloak of magic, making it a strong pick foradvanced elementary to middle school grades.
