My review: The Watchers: Knight of Light by Deirdra Eden
4 STARS
The drama starts right off from the start and keeps going till the end. You find out about Auriella at the same time she does. She faces many foes, she is scared but does what she thinks is right. Along the way she has come across some good friends too.
The characters are a range of bad Shadow wolves and witches and pixies, dwarfs and dragon. It is basically a fight of dark and light too save mankind or to take over mankind.
You can see Auriella get stronger with each trial she faces as she learns about who and what she is. She is I believe 14 when we first meet her from a small village. She is a orphan. She risks her life to save some kids from a fire. Someone called her a witch and the village turned on her because of it.
The setting is 1270 England
This is a clean fantasy, I think this is a good family friendly book. YA
This a easy fast read. I did not put the book down till I had finished and I want to read the rest of the series in the future.
I was given this ebook to read for the purpose of giving a honest review and joining The Watchers: Knight of Light book tour.
The Watchers Book 1: Knight of Light
In England, 1270 A.D., Auriella (pronounced yurr-ee-ella) flees her village after being accused of witchcraft. Pursued by nightmarish creatures, she struggles to accept the truth about her humanity. Filled with fairies, dwarves, pixies, dragons, and monsters, Knight of Light is an enthralling tale that will capture the imaginations of readers young and old.
The Watchers Series has been described as
Braveheart meets
Supernatural. The mythology for the series is based on many theological texts from dozens of sects with correlating themes. Ancient writings include
The Dead Sea Scrolls,
The Traditional Apocrypha,
The Pearl of Great Price, and
The Kabbalah.
“The Watchers” are supernatural beings in human form whose duty it is to protect and guard mankind from the armies of darkness. Unfortunately, as the
Book of Enoch mentions, some of these Watchers go bad. Although the mythology is based on these texts, Deirdra Eden’s
The Watchers Series is written in a traditional fairytale style with a young girl’s discovery of incredible, but dangerous powers within herself, a cast of humorous side-kicks, a quest for greater self-discovery and purpose, and villains of epic proportions.
About the Author
"My goal in writing is to saturate my books with intrigue, mystery, romance, and plot twists that will keep my readers in suspense. I want to see fingerprints on the front and back covers where readers have gripped the novel with white knuckles! Aside from writing, I enjoy jousting in arenas, planning invasions, horseback riding through open meadows, swimming in the ocean, hiking up mountains, camping in cool shady woods, climbing trees barefoot, and going on adventures."
