Great listen

I really enjoyed this story and following the fairies on their journey. My emotions were up and down throughout the story and I was drawn in to the fairy world. I’m really looking forward to the next book and to see where the fairy journey takes me. (I received a copy of this story and leaving a voluntary review)

Enjoyed it

This was the first story I have heard from Denny. I truly enjoyed the story

Exciting and well worth the read

I loved the book and encourage adding this to your fantasy reading list! Even though the book starts a bit slowly, the setup for the complex and exciting stories is well worth it! Can't wait for the next book!

Super job!

I loved listening to this book. There were many entertaining twists and turns. By the end, some mysteries were resolved but there is great opportunity for more to be resolved and a fire for the fairies. 🧚‍♂️🧚‍♂️ I do hope Mr. Swartslander plans to continue the storyline. I look forward to seeing how it proceeds!

A Mother's Love and Protection

Eleganta is a very well book that is descriptive and engaging. The storyline is clean with no curse words or sexual words or activity so it is perfect for older kids who like fantasy novels. I particularly love that the author does not write our heroine to be a cowardly whiner and as the story proceeds she becomes braver and stronger she may be a fairy but she becomes a mother bear to protect her child as she is the first wild born child in 14 years. The storyline also introduces you to many mystical creatures such as trolls, nymphs, goblins etc in this uncomplicated but intricate plot. I highly recommend this book to readers of fantasy novels young and older. This is my honest unbiased review that I am voluntarily leaving of my own volition. I received this book for free at my request.

meh!

I really wanted to like this story but a last I can't get past the narrator ..
