Description

This is the riveting third book of the blockbuster series, The Fair and Fey, translated from the High Elven of Sashegh’s third journal by J. Ellyne. The series began 9,000 years ago when Sashegh and her people came from the planet Mag to settle on an island in our world. They endured conflicts with savage natives and Sashegh came of age, finding love with both men and women. One in particular, a young native Maiden named Nammi, was her true love. Circumstances forced her to leave Nammi behind when Sashegh’s mother decided to take her, along with several other friends and family, on a sailboat of Magin design to the North Country land across the ocean.The Magin lead long lives so Sashegh outlived Nammi by many years. In the second book Nammi was reincarnated as Alikki, an Elf of Maahilund in the North Country, and they were reunited. They became best friends but in her second life Alikki, unlike Nammi, was strictly heterosexual. A wizard named Vainamoinen meets Sashegh and turns her and the other Magin into Elves. They join with the Elves of Maahilund and together they battle demons and the Devil who are determined to exterminate them.You may have been saddened by the death of Sashegh at the hands of the Devil in the ending of the second book. On the other hand, perhaps you suspected she would be reincarnated, like Nammi was. How else could she have written her third journal? In the third book we find her reincarnated as an Elf in her new life, thousands of years after her first life, with a new name, Vilya.This book, The Elves of Arthannegh, is a true epic, twice the length of the first book. It tells of the beginning of the ending of Elves in our world and the beginning of the beginning of the Arthurian Legend (the romance of Uther and Igraine), all happening in the same realm at the same time. There are several wars: Britons fighting Romans, Saxons fighting Britons, and Elves fighting Orcs. The Elves are involved in all of this. Vainamoinen reappears too, also with a new name, Merlin, and gives advice and visions of the future to both Elven and British friends, manipulating them for his own purposes.Underneath all the plotting, warfare and bloodshed are two warm romantic love stories. One is the story of Uther and Igraine, the other is the story of Vilya (Sashegh) and the woman she has loved for thousands of years and with whom she always seems to reconnect. The tie between the Elves and the Britons is Igraine who, according to the Arthurian legends, was half-Elven. Because of her, the Elves and the Britons become allies and fight the Saxons and the Orcs together.If this book doesn’t get your heart racing, you should check your pulse, you might be dead!
