The sky is dark. Neither
the sun nor the moon have been seen in decades. The land is fruitless,
and the seas are barren. No law exists, only the rule of might is
exerted over a hapless people by those who can wield it. In a land of
darkness and despair, there is one shining light, an ancient prophecy
that foretells of the coming king and his companion, the vanquisher of
evil.Sapphire of the Fairies is the first of seven volumes of the epic
fantasy series Sword of Heavens. Explore a vast continent where elves,
dwarves, unicorns, fairies, demons, dragons, and man all exist. Sapphire
of the Fairies begins the saga of five humans on the verge of
adulthood. Living in a land where no one can be trusted, these five
adventurers must restore the magical Sword of Heavens and defeat the
Evil One, an evil sorcery whose minions roam the world in an attempt to
defeat the ancient prophecy.Discover a world of magic and intrigue
created by Richard S. Tuttle, called "one of this century's leading
authors of innovative fantasy tales." Volume 1 of Sword of Heavens. From Goodreads. The start of the book was very slow. The blurb had me expecting something completely different and not the slow character building of four of the young main characters. It wasn't bad, I just didn't expect it. After a while the adventure picks up and at the end of the story things are revealed about several of the characters. I might continue this series at a later date.
