First impressions are crucial, and Mandy Eve-Barnett makes a damn good first impression on readers on this book! The author has an intricate, but not too complex, style of narrative and she uses words that force the imagery of the period and setting of her story. In less that three sentences, you are aware and set on the scenario that she is trying to convey. Excellent!
“.… Guillem had been admired for his prowess in battle, but now he was even more revered as a troubadour. His tales of battles and faraway lands held audiences spell bound as he punctuated them with displays of swordsmanship and the exhibiting of combat scars. “Words are so locked in place that it seems like the author took time to choose each word that is on the novella, trapping the readers in the grand grandeur of Guillem, the knight and troubadour, which fame is unmatched. The author, makes Guillem the center of attention, but there are layers of reality behind him. the character isn’t exaggerated in any aspect and the intricate narrative along the many details help in giving him a solid built.
There is poetic detail to the scenery and the narrative, but nothing that is too embellished. We understood that the author wanted to convey a certain period, and use that to create medieval contrasts that the story demanded.
Mystery and plots were laid without fan-fare, raising many questions on the back of our heads . Not long after the book starts, we have the story of Lord Elros, and the gift he received from the Griffon to save his kingdom from the witch Malgraf.
