Book Description

When a dark plot to undermine the security of the elven nation emerges, Captain Vinyanel Ecleriast must decide. Will he allow his contentious relationship with his half-elven mentor, the Prophetess Veranna, to interfere with his sworn duty to protect his people and his homeland?

Newly ordained as the future High Commander of the First Airborne Division of the Elven Cavalry, Vinyanel sets off astride his new mount—a silver dragon—to intervene before the elves’ enemies disappear into the wilderness not only with priceless artifacts pivotal to the elves’ safety, but the life of the elven king in their hands.

Only if he can put aside his preconceptions and take full hold of Veranna’s teaching will Vinyanel find the strength to fulfill his Divine Summons.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Read November 6, 2011
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I must confess that I have never enjoyed reading or viewing fantasy. I read this book in support of family members involved in its publishing. I came away very impressed with not only the book but its author.

Divine Summons not only held my attention but stimulated me to the point that I read deep into the night and finished the book. My only problem is that book 2 in the series has not been released yet.

Thank you Rebecca Minor for opening my eyes to a world that I previously shunned, but now thoroughly embrace, at least with you as the author.

I highly recommend this book to any and all readers and ages. Extremely family friendly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not a Fantasy Fan October 25, 2011
Format:Kindle Edition
I prefer Urban Fantasy to elves, swords and dragons. But this book with its modern language and attitudes can please even those who are not part of the usual fantasy crowd! Memorable characters and dire situations lend themselves to this terrific prose.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unexpected Classic Charm February 20, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Unexpected classic charm weaved by a lovely voice and quirky characters. Rebecca Minor has a story every fantasy fan will devour. A dragon that breath ice? Yes, we have a winner.
