Tiriki is a Guardian of the Light, but she has grown up in the shadow of the curse of Atlantis. Graceful and gifted, she is the beloved wife and partner of Micail, a spiritual leader and prince. But when disaster divides them, she must find her own path in a new land, and the world she discovers could change her innermost desires forever. Will she find Micail? And if they are reunited, can they find love once again? Damisa has inherited royal blood and royal pride. In Atlantis she was only an acolyte, but in the new land she could become a queen.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"An elegant stylist, Paxson captures the awe, tragedy and resounding mystery of ancient Britain and mist-enshrouded Atlantis." ( Publishers Weekly)

Grounding and magical

The only thing I would change would be to even out the volume of the narrators voice. While I loved the passion and diversity of the narrator's voice, her voice volume level would go down to whisper that was hard to hear, then back up in the same sentences, making it difficult to hear the story. I had to keep rewinding it, turning it up then back down because then it was too loud, etc.

Love all these

please check into Michael Tsarion's research about Atlantians .. very interesting .. did like the idea of them using sounds to move the stones . but . not the enslaved labor

Love this narrator

One of the best narrators for a novel such as this. A great spin off the original.

A bit of the flavor of the Bridgerton’s

Historical romance that was great fun. Miss Landor always does a great job and sways me to reading those that she reads.
