D.E. Night

D.E. Night created the four-volume Croswald fantasy sequence for younger readers. The Crowns of Croswald opens the series with Ivy Lovely, a former castle maid who enters a school where magic is worked through enchanted quills and gemstones. The 2017 first edition came from Stories Untold. Night builds the setting through scrivenists, royal history, unusual creatures, and Ivy's gradual understanding of her own inheritance. The official series shop identifies this first volume as the entry point to a continuous coming-of-age story rather than a standalone school adventure.
