We are all transformed by the choices we make in life.
Elizabetha is a Fairy who has it all figured out. Leaving her studies behind her, she is filling her mother's old position as a Protector of the Peace. At just fourteen, she is the youngest to take on such a role and not many believe her ready.
Young and naïve Elizabetha believes she'll be permitted to explore the world at her own leisure. The trouble with that is she now has more responsibilities than ever. At her coronation ceremony an Elf interrupts the festivities to ask for her aid. Now she must settle a dispute between the Elves of Santa Fin and Merfolk of the Nila River to prevent an outright war.
Elizabetha must prove herself to be a worthy replacement for her mother, Queen Claira who had a reputation as being the best. Praying her younger sisters Arabella and Kaspara will not burn down the palace in her absence she must enter a grander arena. All eyes are upon her. Her new position a true test to show whether Elizabetha will one day make a worthy Queen in the land of Fairoria.
Please note that I got this book for free in exchange for a review which doesn’t affect my review.
Okay, I may not be the most qualified to review this book because I read less than half of this book before I abandoned this. It’s not that it was bad, it wasn’t. I personally just couldn't get myself to like it. I tried to like it, I really did. I would read the book and say to myself, it’s not so bad. Just read it. This book just isn’t for me. Others may like this though, and I hope I don’t offend anyone. Although, I didn’t really like Elisabetha.
I hope other people try this book out and enjoy it. It is a good book and it deserves more attention.
Can 14 year old Fairly Elizabetha fill her mother's position as a Protector of the Peace?
I've just finished reading Fairy Tainted and really enjoyed it! To be honest, I had reservations with the genre but I soon left them behind as I got into the story - rooting for Elizabetha on her quest to take over and rule the Kingdom. I've sure my five grandchildren will enjoy this delightful story in a a couple of years time. Five stars from me.
