In England, 1270 A.D., Auriella (pronounced yurr-ee-ella) flees her village after being accused of witchcraft. Pursued by nightmarish creatures, she struggles to accept the truth about her humanity. Filled with fairies, dwarves, pixies, dragons, and monsters, Knight of Light is an enthralling tale that will capture the imaginations of readers young and old.

The Watchers Series has been described as Braveheart meets Supernatural.

The mythology for the series is based on many theological texts from dozens of sects with correlating themes. Ancient writings include The Dead Sea Scrolls, The Traditional Apocrypha, The Pearl of Great Price, and The Kabbalah.

“The Watchers” are supernatural beings in human form whose duty it is to protect and guard mankind from the armies of darkness.
Unfortunately, as the Book of Enoch mentions, some of these Watchers go bad. Although the mythology is based on these texts, Deirdra Eden’s The Watchers Series is written in a traditional fairytale style with a young girl’s discovery of incredible, but dangerous powers within herself, a cast of humorous side-kicks, a quest for greater self-discovery and purpose, and villains of epic proportions.

 

Review:

I received a free copy of this book for an honest review.

Knight of Light is a fantasy for young adults that is difficult to put down from the moment you start reading it. It is full of action, adventure, heartache, and even a little romance.

I fell in love with the main characters. Auriella had such a rough beginning and, understandably, thinks that she is nobody, but with the help of friends she eventually learns that she is special and finally embraces what and who she is. Ruburt, a dwarf, becomes a close friend and would do anything to protect her. Her other close friend, Cassi, is an adorable pixie. What a trio they make!

This is a great book and I highly recommend it for readers of all ages. I can’t wait to see what happens in the next book in The Watchers series.

 

 

 

“My goal in writing is to saturate my books with intrigue, mystery, romance, and plot twists that will keep my readers in suspense. I want to see fingerprints on the front and back covers where readers have gripped the novel with white knuckles!

Aside from writing, I enjoy jousting in arenas, planning invasions, horseback riding through open meadows, swimming in the ocean, hiking up mountains, camping in cool shady woods, climbing trees barefoot, and going on adventures.”
