Link to buy The Elf Princess
Story Rating: 2 out of 5
Review:
The Elf Princess by Rosemary Lynch is a Fantasy/Love story.
Plucking Kaitlin Jacobs out of her simple life and into the high stakes
world of Elves, Witches, Dragons, Trolls, and Goblins. And it’s up to her to
save the world from total destruction. The only person she can trust is her
childhood friend and true love Keltor.
Lynch has amazing world building skills,
however her follow through falls a little short. Her need to put her hero
in conflict after conflict after conflict creates drag in the novel.
Unnecessary conflict is irritating not nail biting. The main reason
holding the Keltor back from admitting his love for Kaitlin becomes a non issue
at the end because he ‘says’ so.... Ummm what? Another small world building
short fall. There were several editing issues noticed. I try not to point these
out but there were so many it is something that needed to be mentioned.
Overall, The Elf Princess has a good
overall premise and liked the book. As I mentioned Lynch has good world building
skills. She also has an ability to write a fight scene that has you seeing
it like it’s a movie scene playing out in your mind. And Keltor knows how
to kick some serious butt.
But in the end I had more issues I disliked about The Elf Princess
then I liked so unfortunately I am giving it 2 out of 5.
