Review: Princess Una of Parumvir longs for men to pay their respect to her as she has just come of age. She dreams of romance and her prince charming sweeping her of her feet. But her first suitor, Aethelbald, is anything but that. In fact, he couldn't be more ordinary. And only a day after Prince Aethelbald arrives, another prince, Gervais, arrives, much more interesting than the first. With rumors of the Dragon moving toward Parumvir, Una begins to be unwise and, giving her heart away, finds herself in deeper danger then she ever thought possible. Warning! May be spoilers beyond this point! Positive content:
The allegory is very well done and depicts Jesus in the way he is, loving us no matter how far we stray from the path. Many positive ideals lace themselves through this story. Violent content: Nothing detailed, but there is a dragon that burns several towns. The dragon's nest is also pretty dark and creepy. It has a throne covered in blood. Sexual content: Una kisses one of the princes. Nothing detailed. At all. Literally, "They kissed." Language: None Overall opinion: I took off a star because it had a very slow start, but overall, it was very well done, the writing style was great and the allegory was realistic and gripping. I would definitely recommend it to anybody who loves fantasy/allegory type books. It was a great story!
