BLOG TOUR, REVIEW & GIVEAWAY: The Beltane Escape (The Two Realms Trilogy, #1) by Ariella Moon


The Beltane Escape by Ariella Moon 

(The Two Realms Trilogy, #1) 
Publication date: February 2016
Genres: Fantasy, Young Adult


Synopsis:

Lady Fenella, ever surrounded by guards, knows only responsibility and duty. She believes Merlin and the Lady of the Lake are myths, Gran’s warnings about Fairy are superstition, and Fairy was invented to make children behave.

But then Gran brands her, Lord Argonshire kidnaps her, and the Lady of the Lake makes her a pawn. The Highland heiress must betray her newly betrothed and fend for herself when she dives into a wormhole to save her cousin. She lands in a part of Fairy even fairies avoid, and joins forces with Talfryn, a half-Viking/half-Fairy.

Fenella must use her wits to find her cousin, free the Lady of the Lake, and reach the wormhole in Glastonbury by Beltane. Nine days to unshackle herself from a sorceress, prevent a war between rival clans, and decide in which realm—and with which lad—she truly belongs. Oh, and The Most Powerful Wizard stands in her way.

REVIEW BY: Arianna, age 13 years, 3 months

MAY CONTAIN SPOILER:

This book was great, it intertwined historical fiction and a magical realm full of myths. 

The characters, images, and descriptive details are breathtakingly rich! 

My favorite part is when Fenella's gran brands her and the description of the bum and the emotions Fenella experiences.  It is a very important part of Fenella's life and will affect her forever. 

By the end of the book, I was almost convinced that the characters were real. You can see how much work Ms. Moon put in to this because it really shines through! She wrote a beautifully engaging story. 

I recommend this book to anyone that enjoys romance, adventure, and a great enthralling story. 

I give this book 5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 12 and up.
