The Prophecy (An Estilorian Short Story) [Kindle Edition]

Raine Thomas (Author)

Book Description

Saraqael hadn’t intended to fall in love with Kate. It shouldn’t have even been possible. His kind didn’t experience emotion, and they certainly weren’t supposed to become attached to humans.

When he discovers that Kate’s dying and there’s nothing he or her human doctors can do for her, Saraqael realizes how deep his feelings for her run. And he understands just how far he’s willing to go to save her.

He vows to search until he finds a way to save her life. With the help of his best friend, Quincy, he embarks on a quest spanning the Estilorian plane…a quest that will forever change the future of his kind.

Saraqael will stop at nothing to save Kate, a human who is dying, and asks his best friend Quincy to help him on his quest. Quincy can't fathom his friend's intense love for a human, but he agrees to help despite his misgivings.

Quincy and Saraqael's bromance is a pleasure to read and their back and forth ribbing made me smile, and I would happily read an entire novel on their adventures. Hoygul, a new character in the series, might be one of my favorite fantasy characters ever. He was only in the story for about two pages, but his quirkiness left its mark, and I laughed out loud at Raine's head nods to Homer's Odyssey.

Fans of the Daughter's of Saraqael trilogy will love this short story, and if you're a new reader it's a great way to dip your toes into the Estilorian world.

Really enjoyed this one! Couldn't put it down. Finished in a day. It's a great read like Revenge And Blood Sacrifice and both that I will most certainly be recommending to people in the future.

More About the Author

Raine Thomas is the award-winning author of the exciting and original series of YA fantasy/romance novels about the Estilorian plane. She followed her life-long passion for all things literary and earned her bachelor's degree in English with a focus in Creative Writing from Georgia State University, then her master's degree in Humanities from Central Michigan University. Having grown up in places such as Chicago, Atlanta and Orlando, much of her writing reflects these settings.

Raine is a hopeless romantic with a background in the fields of mental health and wedding planning...two areas that intersect far more than one would think. Her years working with children and adolescents with emotional and behavioral challenges inspired her to create young protagonists who overcome their own conflicts. When she isn't writing or glued to e-mail or social networking sites, Raine can usually be found vacationing with her husband and daughter on one of Florida's beautiful beaches or crossing the border to visit with her Canadian friends and relatives.
