Siddhiksha Patel’s Whispers of Elvoria builds upon the promise of her debut and takes readers on a journey that is both imaginative and emotionally engaging. While Shadows Beneath introduced Patel’s flair for weaving mystery with fantastical elements, this second book showcases a deeper maturity in storytelling, broader world-building, and an even stronger command over pacing and atmosphere.
At its heart, Whispers of Elvoria is about discovery not just of magical realms, but of courage, trust, and the delicate line between myth and reality. The writing retains an accessible, almost conversational tone, which makes it easy for readers of different ages to slip into the story, yet it carries layers of symbolism and cultural resonance that reward thoughtful reading.
In terms of craft, Patel balances mystery and revelation skillfully. She knows when to leave the reader in suspense and when to provide just enough clarity to propel the narrative forward. This rhythm ensures that the story feels like a true journey, each chapter unfolding like another piece of a vast puzzle.
If you enjoyed Shadows Beneath, this second installment will not only meet but likely surpass your expectations. It’s a story that invites readers to believe in magic, but also to reflect on friendship, courage, and the mysteries that lie just beyond the ordinary.

This book is a fantasy adventure which a group of six friends who got themselves into a magical world and try to uncover deep secrets which is tied to two of them.The story starts on the siblings Cassia and Ash’s goofy intro which is so cute. The story is divided into two parts and each part is filled with magic, mystery and adventures.
In the first part, Ash and Cassia and Pearl ( Cassia ki bestf) are introduced and then they meet up the other 3 main characters during a visit to the museum ( Kylo, Niven and Luna[not Lovegod]). After this all 6 of them became very close friends, and this where all the fun begins. During summer vacation they discover a magical cupboard in Ash and Cassia’s grandfather’s place which leads to mystical world known as GLORY DEND.
All of them are assigned the task to solve a magical mystery to protect the kingdom from dark forces. There is a lot of fantasy elements added such as boards, battles and PUZZLES against evil entities!! Each one of them discover their elemental power ( fire, water, wind, ice and spirit). They were successful in defeating the dark forces but the threat isn’t eliminated.
Just a week after this amazing adventure, they find A HIDDEN ROOM (yep it’s again of their grandfather). This time they find a glowing diary which gives them information on the existence of ELVORIA ( realm found above the Atlantic Ocean). And thus, they all set out to solve yet another mystery.
The most eye-catching element for me personally was the integration of Hindu gods and cultural elements into this amazing fantasy narrative ( cause duh!! I am Indian so a bit partial towards this part). The character development of Cassia was one of my fav part!!! ( Read the story to find out WHY!??, I will not give away everything here only).

There’s something incredibly special about reading a fantasy novel where imagination takes center stage and Whispers of Elvoria does exactly that.
The world of Elvoria is rich, magical and inviting. It carries echoes of our beloved fantasy classics like Harry Potter, Narnia and Percy Jackson. But the story still feels uniquely its own. The blend of mystery, magic and mythology, especially the fusion of Indian and Greek mythological elements, is handled with creativity and enthusiasm.
What impressed me the most were the themes. Responsibility, forgiveness, moral choices and adventure are explored with a sincerity that feels far beyond the author’s age. Knowing that Siddhiksha Patel wrote this at just 11 yo adds an entirely new layer of admiration. It reminded me of how powerful storytelling can be when it comes from pure passion.
The narrative is fast-paced and engaging, though at times it feels slightly rushed. A few transitions could have used more breathing space and the ending arrives quicker than expected. There are also minor language and continuity errors. However, none of these issues disrupt the story in a major way. They feel more like signs of a writer still growing into her craft.
One of my favorite aspects was how familiar yet expansive the fantasy world felt. I even noticed a few thematic overlaps with my own fantasy universe (Wars and Wings Saga), which made the reading experience even more delightful.
Overall, Whispers of Elvoria is a strong and imaginative start to what promises to be an exciting series. I m genuinely looking forward to returning to Elvoria and following Cassia’s journey further.
⭐ Story: 5/5

Siddhiksha Patel's Whispers of Elvoria tells a delightful fantasy story that wonderfully combines adventure, mythology, and the strength of friendship.
The story follows Cassia, her brother Ash, and their friend Pearl on what they expect will be a summer vacation, that, unexpectedly becomes a journey far beyond imagination. Along with Kylo, Niven, Luna, and later Blue Bella, they discover Elvoria; a land filled with shadows, unspoken secrets, and enchanting challenges that changes them forever.
Each character adds something important to the story: Cassia's determination, Kylo's unshakable bravery, Pearl's calm strength, and the unbreakable bond of friendship that helps them move forward despite unexpected turns. The writing sustains tension and uncertainty in the question of Is Elvoria for real? How does the connection with the Indian gods relate to this world of magic? Will Cassia find out the truth related to her mother's accident?
For me, the best part is that the mystery is continuously revealed in pieces, which kept me reading on, as I was so wrapped in the story. It is a thoroughly captivating story that will hold your curiosity up until the last moments.
If you are a lover of fantasy adventure books where friendship plays a large part of the story, a magical world exists, and there is a mystery to consider, this book is definitely worth the read.

Is this the only secret they uncover in the house—or is something even bigger about to be revealed? To know what happens, you’ll have to read the book—and I promise, you’ll enjoy it.
What I loved most about the story is the bond between the children and how the author combines Hindu mythology with magic. I truly fell in love with the world the author created.
The writing style is simple and engaging. I kept turning the pages, eager to find out what happened next. The world-building is immersive, with magical realms and forests brimming with danger.

Whispers of Elvoria is a wonderful fantasy and magical adventure story. The entire story is divided into two parts, Part One and Part Two. The first part is about six very brave 12-year-olds. Ash, his sister Cassia, and Cassia's best friend Pearl, and the three of them have new friends, Luna, Niven, Kylo. With miraculous powers from Hecate, they protected the castle of Glory Dend from evil forces. The magical land itself was hidden in a cupboard at the ancestral house of Cassia and Ash's grandfather. The book gave me the same feeling as reading The Wizard of Oz, Alice in Wonderland, or Howl's Moving Castle, with a hint of Hindu mythology woven in.
⚔️ Instead of putting an end to the first part, the author's decision to continue with the second one is praiseworthy. In the second part of the story, six children find themselves on the magical island of Elvoria, where they must defeat the evil Malachar to save the land. The magical world of Elvoria, as described in the second part, reminded me a lot of places like Gyanganj, Shamballa, or Shangri-La.. While reading, I wanted to believe that this world really existed somewhere.
📖 The book read by me has been beautifully plotted. it is a well conceived story. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I just finished reading Whispers of Elvoria by Siddhiksha Patel and honestly it felt like stepping into a kid’s imagination where anything can happen. The story is about two siblings Cassia and Ash, who with their friends end up discovering a magical world. This starts as a normal easy holiday but soon becomes full of mysteries, hidden doors, magical lands including gods and demons.
The book is written in very simple language which is easy to understand. So anyone can pick it up. Sometimes I felt like the author was just near me and telling the story to me directly. I liked that the kids in the book talk and fight like real kids. What I found different is the mix of fantasy with Indian culture. You don’t usually see Vishnu, Shiva, mantras and Indian history connected with a fantasy world so that was interesting. It gives the story a desi touch.
The writing is not very polished but honestly that doesn’t matter because the imagination in the story kept me hooked. What will stay with me is adventure, bond of friendship, moments of courage and that belief in magic which we all had as kids. Overall i enjoyed the book. If you enjoy reading mysteries, hidden doors, magic and kids turning into heroes this one is for you.

I picked up Whispers of Elvoria not really knowing what to expect, but it hooked me quicker than I thought. Cassia and Ash felt like real siblings right from the start, always teasing, fighting but also caring in their own way. In the beginning it’s all normal stuff, school trips and family moments and then suddenly the story slips into this magical world. Castles, hidden doors, powers they didn’t even know they had, it all blended in so naturally that it never felt forced.
What I really enjoyed was the group dynamic. The kids argue, crack jokes, get annoyed but at the end of the day they stand by each other. That balance of fun and care made their adventures with puzzles, giants and mysteries way more interesting to read.
The cultural touches also made it stand out. Little references to Indian gods and history gave it a different flavor compared to other fantasy books I’ve read. The writing is simple, very easy to follow, but still keeps you turning the pages. For me, it brought back that feeling of childhood wonder, courage and how much stronger we are when we stick together.
Overall, it’s a fun, imaginative read.

Whispers of the Elvoria is a tale about the kingdom of Elvoria, explored by a group of kids who must face dark forces to protect it. The characters Ash, Cassia, Pearl, Niven, Kylo, Luna, and Blue Bella embark on a fantastical journey.It’s a tale of love, loss, and a mistake.These children stumble upon a kingdom filled with magical creatures , some friendly, some evil.Places like Glory World, Octum Forest, and Octaland enrich the world-building.
As the story unfolds, the children discover the unique powers they possess abilities they had no idea about before entering this kingdom. Some can control fire, others water, and a few have entirely unique gifts.
I loved how their journey involved unlocking new paths using mythology, including the 24 names of Vishnu and other sacred hymns.Malachar is the dark force they must defeat to save Elvoria.
The writing style is simple and, at times, a bit childish for my taste. However, I appreciate the storytelling—it will definitely attract younger readers.
It seems like this book will have a sequel too, so heads up for the next part!

It seems like this book will have a sequel too, so heads up for the next part!

Whispers of Elvoria: Young Adult Epic Fantasy (The Chosen Book 1) Whispers of Elvoria by Mike Shelton is an young adult fantasy, skillfully blending mystery with adventure and mythology. The book is about siblings Ash and Cassia, who find a magical cupboard through which they slip into other worlds and unwelcome encounters. What starts off as a normal summer soon turns into an adventure of secrets, hidden powers and the mystery of Elvoria.
The story is highly readable, the language clear so that the plot is reachable yet also retains alive. The pace is good and every chapter brings a new twist that keeps you interested without the book becoming overwhelming. The coming-of-age fantasy is a fantasy quest with an Indian twist that makes it feel like the opposite of a standard portal story.
At its core, the tale is about friendship, bravery and also self-discovery beneath all of the action and magical intrigue. Conclusion This concludes up the major arc, while still leaving an opening for further adventures, and provides both satisfaction and curiosity for what for what comes next.

It’s pure magic in Whispers of Elvoria! Elvoria is a secret world that floats over the Atlantic, and Cassia and her brother Ash find it when they come across their grandfather’s glowing diary. Imagine learning that magic exists! I was captivated from the very first page by their journey through storm passages, forgotten gates, magical lakes, and secret paths that could only be unlocked with divine coins. There are many unexpected turns in the story involving Cassia’s mother Vaelora and the evil Malachar.
Totally epic, exciting, and heartbreaking. Seeing Cassia use the divine potion to drive out the darkness was incredibly satisfying, and the final battle had me on the edge of my seat. From Cassia’s unifying heart to Ash’s lack of fear, Kylo’s intelligence, Pearl’s unstoppable strength, Luna’s metamorphosis, Niven’s defense, and Blue Bella’s resurrected strength, the characters are everything.
The ending is so heartwarming, so yes, I need a sequel! This book is a must-read for anyone who enjoys fantasy, magic, friendship, and epic adventures.

Reading this book gave me the same feeling I get when I watch Harry Potter or Narnia. It has lots of secrets that slowly get revealed, and each one makes the story more interesting. At some points, I even felt like I was also part of the adventure with the kids.
One of my favorite parts was when the children get magical powers after entering the new world. Then they start solving the mystery of Elvoria, and we get to know about Cassia’s past and her connection with the island. I also liked the part How Malachar turns into an evil character ?
What made the book even more interesting was how the author added parts of Indian mythology. She included gods like Lord Shiva and Lord Vishnu in the story. This made the magical world feel even more special and powerful.
If you enjoy stories with magic, fun secrets, then you should read this book. If you like Narnia or Harry Potter, you will really enjoy this too

This book deserves way more love than it’s getting, because I genuinely couldn’t put it down 😭
The story is magical, intriguing, and makes you want to read it in one go. My heart, which loves magic just like Cassia, was so happy to finally read a proper fantasy after so many days 🥹✨
It feels like a fairytale with wars, powers, danger, and so much fun. Cassia and her friends Ash, Pearl, Niven, Luna, Kylo, and Bluebella truly shine as the heart of the story, especially as they learn to control their powers and fight to free Elvoria 💗
Some parts felt a little rushed, but the plot is strong enough that you barely notice. I cannot wait for the second book. I have no idea what these lil heros are going to do next 😭🫶🏻
