Journey To Osm – The Blue Unicorn's Tale Reader Review – Flows So Well
Journey To Osm – The Blue Unicorn’s Tale
Reader Review
Seraphia
Journey to Osm is a beautifully written tale of a herd of unicorns waiting on their prophesied savior to be born. He will be the one with the horn and the magic to save them all from the evil who wishes to destroy them all and enslave the world. The author builds such a beautiful world in this story. We meet unicorns, pendragons, two-leggeds (humans) and other strange creatures. This story tells the reader about young Blue who is made to not feel as if he belongs simply because his horn is not metal when he is born. “No metal. No magic.” You will feel the sadness that he feels as he seeks to hide from the herd and learn the extent of loss that they have all suffered at the hands of an evil man who seeks more and more power.
The story flows so well and kept me engaged the entire time. I kept turning page after page to learn what was going to happen next. There are moments of where I am annoyed or disappointed with certain characters, but for me, it helps make them even more “real” or at least relatable as believable characters. I love the romance that the author throws into the story. You see it coming when you learn of Blue’s stable-mate and how they came to be so close. It’s heartbreaking but beautiful at the same time.
There is nothing that I don’t like about this story. The author never becomes too focused on one particular part. The story flows well and keeps the reader engaged from beginning to end. I love the twists and surprises that the author throws into the story. It’s a wonderful story to read.
If you are a fantasy lover this is a book to pick up. If you love stories about unicorns then this is a book to grab. I’m sure that you will enjoy.

Pump Up Your Book Blog Tour – Amiranda by John P Adamos
AMIRANDA: PRINCESS AMIRANDA AND THE TALE OF THE DECIDUOUS FOREST
By John P. Adamo
Juvenile/Tweens
An instant classic tale portraying the life of “Amiranda,”an innocent
and brave princess, who unwittingly sets out on a quest that will
ultimately determine the fate of her entire kingdom.
From her castle window, Amiranda would gaze at the beautiful
countryside below-always watching carefully, always observing
everything. Gradually the princess realizes that she knows very little
of the small kingdom over which she would one day reign.
Nevertheless,
Amiranda would never disobey her father’s wishes, especially the one to
never enter the mysterious dark forest, which borders their kingdom.
That is, until one day when she would have no other choice.
Amiranda will take a journey that will lead her on a wild adventure,
where the decisions she makes will determine the fate of many lives-the
lives of her animal friends, her family members, those who dwell in her
kingdom, and her very own life as well. Travel along on this trip where
Princess Amiranda hopes to find the missing piece in her existence and
ends up trying to achieve the impossible….

The concept of “Amiranda: Princess Amiranda and the Tale of the Deciduous Forest”
by John Adamo
It seems that almost every young girl dreams of being a princess one day… to live in the lap of luxury, to have everything and anything anyone could ever want at their leisure, and to have helpers take care of everyday menial tasks such as cooking, cleaning and other household chores. That is almost everyone, except for Amiranda.
Amiranda is a young princess who is bound to a life of noble aristocracy to which one day she will be head of her kingdom… a kingdom she doesn’t really know much of. After all, Amiranda is not like other children who can go out and play with others, do what they want to at their own leisure, or make choices to what they feel is best for them (right or wrong)… as that is all her parent’s strict and decisive doing. Amiranda’s entire destiny is pre-determined… which is, after all, the biggest part of being a noble.
In writing “Amiranda,” I wanted to tell the tale of a young girl who ventures out into the world on her own for the very first time… and for the first time in her life has to make numerous decisions that will not only determine her own fate, but the fate of other ones she so desperately loves. She has no idea what the outside world is like, how people are like, or what true evil is like. That is where the “Deciduous Forest” comes in… a mystical place where anything can happen… and where goodness lives high on the tips of the leaves just beneath the sunlight and evil lurks deep within the dark shadows hidden from plain sight.
I chose the word “deciduous” for numerous reasons… most obvious being that the tale is based on the numerous difficult “decisions” Amiranda must face. The other is because as season’s change, leaves change, the outside appearance of the world changes, and life inevitably changes. The direct translation of the word “deciduous” is “falling off at maturity,” and this is what Amiranda represents… a young girl who is destined to be a princess, but first must find her own true way in the process of becoming her own true self.
Lastly, the butterfly at the beginning of the novel is so much like Amiranda herself… not realizing its own true inner beauty, very humble and very naïve as to not flaunt its own magnificence before others. Throughout the novel I wanted to paint the image of “Amiranda” as the personification of everything that is wholesome, light and pure; who in turn must face the hostility of evilness that hides deep within the outside world, yet still remain determined and unchanged by outside dark forces which inevitably and ultimately try hard to dissuade her (and perhaps even destroy her). Amiranda is destined to be a princess, the best ruler ever for her kingdom; if only she listens to her parents and stays out of the mysterious dark forest she unwittingly has to enter.

Reader Review
Valerie Padrnos
This was a magical tale. The author was able to transport me to a new realm and I fell in love. There is a great deal of detail in this story that fully let’s you imagine this other world vividly in your mind. I often felt like I was watching a movie while I was reading. I also loved the underdog tones throughout the book. Everyone wants to rally behind a hero that nobody believes in and thinks will fail. I often found myself reading late into the night, just to see what would unfold next and how everything was going to play out. In the end I was very satisfied and thrilled to have read the story. I feel the author did a marvelous job with character development and storyline. I look forward to reading more from this author.
