Trial at the Faire is a 22K prequel for an existing series. It’s polished, but before the final copy edit I'd like to run it by new readers to see if it's clear without reading other books in the series. I have a few questions at the end…so that’s kind of like a review, but for me!

Here's the description:
A fun medieval festival. An outing with friends. With costumes and their magic locked away, no one will suspect they aren’t human, right?
Fifteen-year-old Raven of the Meadows wants nothing more than to spend the day talking to his smart and fun neighbor, Willow, but his gran has other plans for their outing to a human Medieval faire. It’s a test for the young wizards from their hidden island, a trial in passing as human, and everyone must take it seriously. The teens have received strict instructions, from dressing up in old-style costumes to locking away their magic and not even breathing words like spells and magic.
Fine, Raven will go along. Except…Salm of the Seas—older and charming–is paying too much attention to Willow. With no help coming from Beri, his adopted brother who is grumpier than an old badger, and too many interruptions by Coral, Salm’s annoying younger sister, Raven’s only hope to catch Willow’s eye might be the faire’s squire competition.
Trial at the Faire is a fun, action-adventure YA fantasy in the Windborne series, bringing all the island’s wizard teens together two summers before the events of The Witch of the Meadows.
