Brethren Through Bloodshed (Unforeseen Evil book 1) by M.K. Lauren

While wondering through the wilds of the Enchanted Forest a messenger gnome came to me with urgent news of a baby to be born within my fairy clan. Knowing that this would be a long processes I decided to set out to find a book to pass the time while I impatiently awaited the new arrival. Upon returning home to ready my self I found yet another messenger, this time a little blue bird, had come to deliver to me a book that would satisfy my need. This book was titled Brethren Through Bloodshed: Unforeseen Evil by M.K. Lauren.

Cayden, an elven wizard, struggles with accepting who he is and the gifts he has been given. There is a great evil coming to power in the world, and Cayden, with the help of his friends must set out to stop it. Cayden starts his journey in the City of Magic, where he has been studying the art of wizardry. Even there, evil has rooted in those he is meant to trust.  

This story is a classic good vs evil, yet author M.K. Lauren makes it uniquely his own. There are many characters to keep track of but through his wonderful use of description the reader is able to identify each one. The main characters are strong and written so vividly it makes you feel as though you have known them for years.

M.K. Lauren's writing style really makes you feel as if you are right there in the story. It is as if you can feel each emotion that the characters are feeling, every moment of action gets your heart pounding, the moments of triumph makes you soar. Over all I would recommend this book to any reader who is looking for an adventure that draws you in.

It was a grand adventure for this sprite, Well done M.K. Lauren, and I can't wait to read the rest of the series.

Until Friday next my mortal readers.

Evensong by Krista Walsh



I was fluttering about the country side, in search of a new adventure, when I stumbled upon a human library. It was full of many intriguing books, but one stood out above all the rest. Now this book contained an epic adventure that could not be passed up. The book in question was called Evensong by Krista Walsh. I settled my self down in a hidden corner of the library and began to read.

Jeff Powell, a fantasy author, suddenly finds himself sucked into the pages of his own novel. Once there he faces the antagonist he has created. With only his own knowledge of the story, he wonders if he is to blame for the fate of his characters, both good and bad.

In spite of the few grammar and spelling errors, the story comes to life with its vivid characters and wonderful descriptions of  the setting. The story draws you in from the very beginning, with the great concept of an author being spirited away into the world of his own creation. It is an exciting story that makes you feel like you are right in the middle of all the action.

I believe that Jeff Powell connects with both readers and authors in a way, because he gets to live out their greatest dreams...or nightmares? Overall I would recommend this book to any reader who enjoys fantasy novels with a twist,

Ten tiny thumbs up to Krista Walsh, It was a wonderful adventure, and I absolutely cannot wait to read the next book in the series.

Till Friday next my mortal readers.
