Romantic adventure across time and space, May 20, 2009
This review is from: Elven World (Paperback)
In Elven World, one enters a fast-paced story in which a bunch of ancient Celtic gods are transported to modern-day Portland, Oregon, in a quest to save the world.
A romantic adventure, the tale follows genuine mythological characters as they battle their long-time enemies, the legendary, hideous Formorians, and then learn that the real enemy is not who or what they thought! I won't give away the surprise, but the true enemies turn out to be highly relevant to today's concern with living a "green" lifestyle in harmony with the Earth.
It's a great read. The intended audience is young adults, and it is definitely family-friendly. I am recommending it to a reading group as well as to my friends because I am sure they will love it.

Wonderful cast of characters and storyline....., July 26, 2009
This review is from: Elven World (Paperback)
Really a unique adventurous book including many of the Irish Faerie gods/goddesses and a really relevant interesting story.....starts in the Hill of Tara with Tuatha de Danann (high court of the Irish Faeries)and moves to the Redwoods of nothern Cal. and Portland OR. There's romance, intrigue, and some great messages about environmentalism and faith/hope. Highly recommended- looking forward to the sequel!

Elven World, February 1, 2011
This review is from: Elven World (Paperback)
It was such an honor to read this magical book. It awakened a new sense of hope and purpose to life, as I followed the Tuatha De Dannan through their journeys, bringing the old ways back to life. It helped me to discover my true self and see the beauty and magic in the world, and helped me to see the possibilities of a brighter future ahead, when the Fae and the Elves will once again imbue their magic upon the Earth and live in harmony with man. It was a spell-binding read, and had a difficult time putting it down, and was sad when I had finished, am looking forward to the next book!!
