A Middle Grade Fantasy Adventure

Some rules are meant to be broken. Some secrets are too big to keep.

Deep in the towering Songwillow trees, where the elves live high above the forest floor, they are safe from the dangers below. At least, that’s what Elin has always been told. She doesn’t like to be told what to believe. When she risks everything to help someone she shouldn’t, she shatters the fragile balance of her world and sparks conflict between enemies, tests her friendships, and draws the wrath of the gods themselves.

Now, with danger closing in from all sides, Elin must run, leap, and fight through the oversized branches of the Songwillows. Defying expectations at every turn, will she be cast out as a traitor, or can she become the leader her people never expected?

Perfect for youth ages 8-12, Allies of the Willow is an action-packed adventure about courage, friendship, and standing up for what’s right—no matter the cost. Fans of daring heroines, thrilling chases, and rich fantasy worlds won’t be able to put this book down!

Breaking the rules to follow what's right

When Elin stands up to her elders.. not with anger, but with calm, clear courage and says, sometimes the right path isn't the one they teach you.. i think this is one of the best parts in the audiobook. It made me realize how often we shrink ourselves to fit old rules or expectations. But Elin's quiet defiance? it's a reminder that real strength is in standing firm in your truth, even when it makes others uncomfy.

I'm Hooked!

This series is always fast-paced and fun middle graders! The world-building is amazing and I love how it still has heart, amongst the twists and turns. A great series for my daughter to enjoy, who thrives on audiobook stories!

a fun ride

I just wanted to say how impressed I am with Allies of the Willow! The world the author has created among the Songwillow trees feels so vivid and alive—it’s such a fresh take on elven fantasy. Elin is a fantastic protagonist: brave, stubborn, and full of heart. I love how the story doesn’t shy away from big themes like defiance, loyalty, and finding your own path, all while maintaining a thrilling and accessible pace for younger listeners.

a must listen fantasy series!!

Another phenomenal story in the series. I listened to Book 1 before this one but you can definitely start with this one first/read out of order. Immerse in another world of the willows interspersed with magic and different kinds. Young elves have everything at risk and everything within them to save the forrest and as many of the others. Another adventure that keeps you listening closely until the end!! I cannot wait for Book 3!! Don't think about it. Just start listening.

A wonderful story for kids

A delightful read for kids that will capture their imagination. There is plenty of adventure and action to go around in this fantastical read. I appreciated the friendship between the characters and the themes of standing up for one's beliefs. Great story overall.
