Book
three of The Chronicles of Arandal
When
Willow’s sister, Rowan, fled from Valleyhold and became Queen of Arandal, their
parents worked hard to regain their pace in Valleyhold society. But Willow
refused to betray her sister’s memory and was ostracized. Now she’s receiving
intermittent messages from Rowan asking her to come to Arandal and help her
sister.
Dragon
shape-shifter Cullendor is prepared to help Willow escape so he can learn about
humans. He decides being a king would be a great career. But even getting there
isn’t easy.
Ever since I
read the previous book in this series I’ve been waiting for the next story in
this amazing world. Magic, shapeshifters, a kind of medievalish fantasy world
all mixed together with the timeless pattern of people overcoming difficulties
and falling in love.
Willow is a
mixture of naïve innocent virgin, and independence, plus stubborn determination
to help her sister. Cullendor is in a different world from his home and has to
make sense of everything here, as well as carve out a place for himself all
while staying alive. His motives are confused and mixed, but that makes him
seem very human.
Plus we gain
a glimpse of previous heroines and heroes working at making their happy ever
afters continue to have meaning and relevance.
Great world
building, amazing characters, good pacing, nice plot twists. It’s easy to see
why this author is so popular and this book is a worthy continuation of the
series.
This is an objective review and not
an endorsement of this book.
