Not Everything That Looks Royal Is…
The deep relationship between Amaria, the princess of Abalon
and Marken, the chancellor’s son, comes to a halting stop after their kingdom
is almost annihilated. However, death isn’t the only thing this battle brings. Elfs
come to their rescue and, as a souvenir, take the princess home with them.
Blinded by fury, the overprotecting queen orders the
extermination of the mighty elfs. Her captains know they can never win, so they
are pleased when Amaria intervenes so desperately that she loses her mother.
The unprepared princess is left to care for a kingdom that will demand her true
love.
A Royal Elf of Abalon is the stand-alone continuation of
Anna’s Elf series. Once again she has crafted an exciting new tale full of jealousy,
betrayals, and death. A Royal Elf of Abalon is a masterpiece created in the
genre of Tolkien that you’ll love to the end.
I’m sure that anyone who loves fantasy would love this. For
those who might think that “elfs” is a typo—it’s not. Anna has spelled it this
way on purpose. Here is a review by Cindy Bennett:
“This
story follows Amaria's journey from innocent young princess to wise and
loving queen. Amaria quickly becomes a strong, admirable woman who must
prove her worthiness to rule. Amaria learns who she can trust, and whose advice
to take to heart as she learns to rule. As time goes on, and Amaria tries to
discover a way to be with her love, secrets are revealed which may throw
Amaria's kingdom into an uproar.
A Royal Elf of Abalon
is a wonderful, epic fantasy with a strong heroine who has much to be admired
about her. The story sweeps you in, and every time you think you know what is
going to happen, Dye takes the story in a new direction to keep you guessing.
Amaria and Kurzan's story is heartbreaking and wonderful all at the same time.
There are many secondary characters who are equally enthralling. You'll find
yourself caught up in their stories as much as Amaria's. Dye's great story is
full of all the things that make a book great: forbidden love, intrigue,
secrets, wars, elves, orks . . . there is more than enough to grab any
readers interest and hold it until the end.”
