The Elven Lords

review 1: Forty years have passed since “The Fire Lord’s Lover” and twenty-some years since “The Lady of the Storm”. The beginning, reading Drystan recounting the years since Giles and Cecily fled to Wales, outside the elves’ reach, I got the impression of missing stories. Especially with “The Lord of Illusion” marked as third in the elven trilogy. Which saddens me because I could well imagine General Samson Cavendish and Lady Joscelyn; Alexander and warrior-lady Wilhelmina; and Dorian with Aurelia’s story would have been well anticipated; especially on having more of Kennedy’s beautiful world. Alas I was wrong... Dominic from The Fire Lord's Lover he is an old man. His son is in the forty/fifties. But still I could see the three ... moresets of heroes could have had a story. Could have prolonged the series to six books instead of the three. To give readers more of this beautiful world that Kennedy created. Drystan is not your usual hero. He's actually a romantic, a scholar. His insistance that Camile was his love was quite different for a change.
review 2: This was a nice conclusion to The Elven Lords series by Kennedy. I loved the characters Camille and Drystan. They both have a spark that was intriguing to be a part of. I only gave this novel three stars because though the characters were as remarkable as always,the plot was a little dry and predictable as all get out. I also would have liked to see more depth in the story instead the elementary thought process of A to B to C. It was a sequence of lets do this and then they do it. Her other works seemed less like this and for that I am glad. Other than the plot it was a good strong story. You cannot help but love Kennedy's characters and the history rich world she builds into every story. less
