Can love conquer all, or will evil prevail?
Fairy tale, adventure, handsome prince. There’s even an evil monster, a real fairy and dwarves. Quest for the Magic Stones has them all, but the author put her own interpretation to the mixture and updated it for the modern world.
The characters had ordinary names – Leslie, Peter and Kim – but the story is certainly not ordinary. A timid poor girl, a kind excitable rich girl and a prince with a terrible secret. Magic also plays a part with spells cast by an evil sorcerer and magic jewels. Take the whole pill, do not crush, chew or break the pill, as doing so may cause emotional distances- the big trauma for a relationship. viagra price When considering making a purchase decision, you generally would like to seek advice http://deeprootsmag.org/2015/01/12/slim-name/ levitra uk from other people and this could lead to overdosing or choosing the wring substances.

The story had all the ingredients of the usual fairy story but the author turned the story round. I liked the way the the young lady went on a quest to save the prince. Usually it’s the other way around.
The only problem I had was that the book was too short. This is not to say there wasn’t enough depth, Ms Rouchelle has written an action packed tale that leaves no questions at the end. Luckily I noticed this book is the first of a series so I cheered up again. I look forward to reading the next installment and hope it’s as intriguing as the first.
