Empyreal Fate
A Llathalan Annal
By Rachel Hunter
Llathala is a land full of mythical
beings we know only in tales, separated by woods lives the elves and the humans
who are on the verge of war. One day Darrion, the son of a poor laborer is
foraging in the woods for food when he stumbles upon Amarya, one of the elven
royals, forever changing his life. In the midst of the turmoil will Darrion and
Amarya find a way to be together or will they be ripped apart because of where
they come from?
First off I have to discuss the
obvious, the writing style is not typical it has a more old-English feel to it
as you go, at first it seemed a bit pretentious to me but I kept on and as I
did I came to realize that if the author had written this story any other way
it would not have done as well as it did in the style she uses. Now that being
said this is an interesting story all on its own, with hints of Romeo and
Juliet as the star crossed lovers want desperately to be together but they know
they cannot, but to pull this off the author had to write a convincing romance
where you feel for each faction as well as the lovers and I am happy to say
that Rachel Hunter did a wonderful job. I look forward to seeing what the
author does with the rest of Llathalan I can see a lot of potential writing
material in the future, this is definitely worth the read.
