Queen to Come by Frances Ellen | Book Review
The first novella in the Aster Prequel Novellas trilogy is titled A QUEEN TO COME. It provides a foundation for understanding the Asters' world, its characters, and its power struggles.
As they await the ascension of their new queen, a group of young magic-wielding Asters defend the world from the attacks of the Dark Kings and their followers. The Queen was born with a special ability that hadn’t been seen in five hundred years, and in order to keep her safe, she was raised as a human and kept in hiding.
Even she is unaware of her power until she is eighteen years old. However, as the new Dark King learns of the impending ascension, the Queen's life is in jeopardy. Before it's too late, the Dark King must be stopped by the Asters.
The five asters you find –
Sky can shimmer and fly to any location in the world.
NATAN has control over the environment.
SOPHIE can treat even the most severe injuries.
MATU can penetrate even the strongest walls.
LIAN is able to ignore any pain until his last breath.
The fantasy world that the author has created is truly amazing, with a wide range of characters and abilities that will keep you interested and wanting more.
The plot was absorbing and thoughtful with a twist to shock you. I loved this book because I could literally picture the scenes that were happening in front of me. It gives you that creative spark.
Overall, this novella was an exciting and intriguing story that read as more of a full novel than a short little titbit of a bigger story. I became so emotionally invested in the story that it was hard for me to put it down.
