A very touching end to a magical tale of love, loss, hardship, and forgiveness.

Did not disappoint! Just as good, maybe better than the first. Though I admit I liked some of the characters more in the first, the characters that lived on into this book grew, and with they my opinion of them also grew. It reminds me of a parallel version of Beauty and the Beast in some ways, but ...

Great book! I love it, from the start it slowly draws you into a world of magic, enchanting characters, and a perfect plot for twists, and unexpected surprises! A must read for any fantasy lover, and is sure to please! The more I read, the harder it was to put down! Can't wait to get my hands on the...

I read the third book in this series, Raven's Ladder, first. I enjoyed it so much that I went back for the first two - whose covers are just gorgeous, by the way - and I've come to the conclusion that this is a very good series.Yes, it's Christian-themed, but it doesn't often feel like it.

The Ale Boy's feast is the fourth book in the "Aurelia's Colors" series, a fact which I wish I had known before trying to stumble and flounder through this novel. What would probably have been an intriguing, well-written fantasy novel ended being a flop for me personally because try as I might, I c...

"Auralia's Colors" is a Christian fantasy novel akin to "The Light of Eidon," a book I reviewed just last week. Even though the two are by completely different authors, my thoughts on both of them are pretty much the same, so go read my "Light of Eidon" review if you haven't already.

This is definitely not a stand-alone book; you may want to go back through and re-read previous books before you dig in again. I'll admit I never did finish this book; it came across as disjointed and occasionally disorganized, and like the author's heart wasn't in it. The world itself is definitely...

This is going to be a fast one - I'll have a full review on my blog soon.Bottom line: I liked it.What I liked was the way the author shows us the story. Beautiful, ethereal prose, making even a tired-sounding scene like a selfish queen's need to own everything she sees, seem beautiful and deeper tha...
