To Achieve Peace, War is Oftentimes Inevitable… Outskirts Press is Pleased to Announce the Publication of the Elf and the Princess
Salt Lake City, UT, October 23, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Outskirts Press is pleased to announce the publication of The Elf and the Princess by Anna Del C. Dye. First in an adventurous new fantasy series, The Elf and the Princess is a dramatic tale of Elfish warfare—a true Tolkienesque epic that lives up to the expectations of today’s fantasy-reading public.
“They killed my people, when they did not have any weapons!” she cried, hurting. “They do not deserve any better than that.”
“That would make you an assassin, just like them. Is that what you want?”
“I want them dead!”
Menarm was a great and prosperous kingdom, known throughout the lands for its friendly, hard-working people and fair trade. But a bitter struggle of succession between brothers left the kingdom devastated, the people divided. Some stayed with Fenil, who had conquered the crown, others followed Renil to the wild lands of the north, founding a new kingdom.
Now Adren, the last princess of the vanquished realm of Menarm, finds herself alone in a world where women live in the shadows of men. Not only must she battle her enemies, but also a truth that could obliterate her last hope for happiness and bring dishonor to all those whom she hold dear. On her quest, she finds unlikely allies in a powerful prince and a defiant mercenary, only to be devastated by an ancient and wily elf. Will Adren be able to survive this final assault?
While The Elf and the Princess, book one of The Silent Warrior Trilogy, is targeted for the youth market, it will be well loved by readers of all ages. Anna’s in-depth character development and detailed creation of a unique new world make The Elf and the Princess a brilliant tale of true love, high adventure, and medieval-style warfare between elves, men, and orks. Drawing inspiration from the ancient myths and legends of Europe and from such writers as J.K. Rowling and J.R.R. Tolkien, Anna del C. Dye spins a completely original tale that will leave the reader wanting more.
What many new fantasy authors can only promise, Anna del C. Dye delivers in The Elf and the Princess.
