The Hero and the Crown
by Robin McKinley
Review this book!
Aerin is the only child of the King of Damar, and as such she should be his rightful heir. However, Aerin's mother is a witch-woman of the North, and as the daughter of a witch the people of Damar do not trust Aerin to be their ruler. When Aerin meets the wizard Luther, she learns that her destiny is far greater than being the Queen of Damar. That she, the daughter of a king and a witch, is meant to retrieve the stolen Hero's crown, the prized treasure and secret strength of Damar. This is a prequel to "The Blue Sword". Winner of the 1985 Newbery Medal.
