A most thrilling and captivating tale for readers of all agesMenarm 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 twin 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?The Elf and the Princess is a brilliant tale of high adventure, true love, and medieval-style warfare between elves, men, and orcs. Drawing inspiration from the 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.

"The Elf and the Princess" by author Anna del C. Dye was an easy and gratifying read. I LOVED it, and the text is appropriate for readers of any age.
This book is definitely for the reader who seeks adventure, enjoys war action, and relishes a little romance.
As for me, I absolutely revelled in the clues the author gives as to the mystery of the silent warrior. Even though this mystery is revealed very early in the book, there were surprises up to the very end! I also enjoyed the beautiful names she gives to the characters and places in the story. What an imagination!
This new creator of fantasy delivers the yet unimaginable. Immerse yourself in a truly delightful story, because I was! I wonder when the author will publish the second installment of the Silent Warrior Trilogy. I keep checking her website for news, because I can barely wait to get my hands and eyes on it!

In her debut title, The Elf and The Princess, Anna Del C. Dye weaves a tale of secrets, mystery, love, war and high fantasy.
Her characters are endearing, as the reader becomes entwined with their lives and their tales of joy and woe.
My favorite part was the love story of the elf and the princess. Princess Adren is so close to her one love, the elf Dellin. But yet so far.
Adren has lost her mother and her kingdom to the hated, troll-like beasts called orks. Now Adren does not have a home, a family or a life worth living. Will the elf world accept her? Will she also loose her true love Dellin?
The Elf and The Princess will have you spell bound, and wishing for more. Thankfully, there will be two more high-fantasy novels in the Silent Warrior series.
