I just could not resist

The Forgotten Realms by Silvia Shaw

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Rand is an epic tale of two parallel worlds, our earth and Rand, with magic, Monsters, female warriors, winged horses, witches and demons. There are not one, but two lesbian romances here, that of the main heroine, Savannah, who’s been promised her dream woman by a vision, that saved her from certain death in a sandstorm in the Sahara, and that of the warrior woman, who comes to find her and take her “home” to Rand, Tamasin and her wife.

In volume 2 we even get treated to a third lesbian romance, as Savannah truly takes charge of her role as the chosen one and her romance with Pela moves to a new level, on her way to recruit soldiers and find new allies she meets another “bookworm”/historian, Princess Fern, the cousin of Luna.

As more dark forces plot their own schemes in Arcadia, the new protector of the queen to be, a siren, and Princess Fern fall in love. Beginning to unravel the mysteries of the past Savannah gets herself in more trouble than she expects, while Tamasin and Pela both struggle to organise the defence against the enemy they don’t even know yet.

The epic tale of Rand continues along the same lines as volume one and the plot thickens. Don’t read this one without volume one, you won’t have a clue of what they’re dealing with without it. As a volume two it is as gripping and and fantastic as volume one and the romances spice the action/adventure bits up nicely. I enjoyed this continuation of the tale very much.
