review 1: I really enjoyed this book. I haven't read many books about fairies...but I'm no stranger to ogres and trolls. This book had all of those and more. I felt like it got off to a bit of a slow start and, in the beginning, the main character seemed a little bit naive and dim for my tastes. However, I was pleasantly surprised at how well her character, as well as the others, devoloped as the story progressed. The story follows Ethywyne, the only fairy to mother a youngling in the past 14 years, and her protectors as she evades beings of darkness that are hell-bent on capturing Ethywyne and her child...and destroying the rest of fairykind along the way. Ethywyne and her protector make their way to the castle of the Queen, who is their only hope for survival of their race and pro... moretection for the future of all fairies. The story has everything...love, betrayal, adventure, merriment, destruction, and hope.
review 2: Eleganta is a story of fairy kind. It is full of enchanting and not so enchanting places, and mystical creatures. As a young adult book it reads well and smoothly. There’s the battle between the trolls and the fairies, a betrayer, grogs, fairy eaters and many who will help Ethywyne, the heroine, on her journey. The story develops well and the characters are well developed. I really enjoyed this book and look forward to the next story of Ethywyne and her journey. less
