Daring Quests Yield Lessons of Life 

Shirley Cheng brings fiction to life in her new novel, Daring Quests of 
Mystics. Written in a beautiful, engaging lyrical style, this family-friendly 
book provokes the readers to discover that fine qualities surpass all powers 
of magic and sorcery. The exciting world of castles and mystics allows us to 
experience a magical journey along which lessons of life are taught and 
cherished. 

Daring Quests of Mystics follows the adventures of beautiful Princess Sophia. 
Her elegant and tranquil life is upset on her seventeenth birthday when she 
receives the omen from her special friend, an oracle by the name of 
Dawn: "Terror and adventure you shall face on your wedding day." Dawn then 
bestows two magical gifts upon her: a white dove and a multicolored ring of 
rhinestones. Her world is turned upside down as she is forced to conquer 
daring and dangerous quests on her path to becoming a woman. 

Shirley Cheng has certainly experienced difficult quests of her own. Born in 
New York in 1983, Cheng was diagnosed with severe Juvenile Rheumatoid 
Arthritis at only eleven months old and completely lost her vision at age 
seventeen. Although blind and confined to a wheelchair, Cheng has not let her 
severe disabilities hinder her thirst for life. She excels in academics and 
writes both prose and poems. Cheng is a three-time winner of the National 
Reflections Program in visual arts. She is a miracle survivor with tremendous 
capabilities. Most remarkably, she started school at age eleven without any 
prior education and English is her second language. After a successful eye 
surgery, Cheng hopes to earn science doctorates from Harvard University.
Coming soon is her second book, The Revelation of a Star's Endless Shine: A 
Young Woman's Autobiography of a 20-Year Tale of Trials and Tribulations.
