The Empress and the Archer: The Empress' Quest

By: Erich Wildgrube

Narrated by: Jacob Buchholz

The land of Velicorte has known peace for more than a hundred years, but with the death of the Emperor, it has been thrown into chaos....

This story follows the young Empress to be Leeta Shepard, as she and her faithful steed Sampson, attempt to unite the land against an invasion of Druids and their Goblin allies. Along the way she is joined by General Silas Goldfeather, The Emperor's oldest confidant, and Jeremiah S. Wolfwood, a roguish barkeep. Leeta's only hope, however, lies in the fabled "Archer of Queen City" a hero of legend, prophesied to save her people from their most dreadful foe.

Alongside this tale lies that of Henry Ian Daniels a young man from a world much like ours. Along with his best friends Anton and Dinah, Henry works at the local movie theater and is training hard for the local Queen City archery tournament.

A great new fantasy novel

The deep forests and open plains of Velicorte are some of the most fun I have had in modern fantasy. The real world side of the novel is what you look for in this style. A must read!!!

Big Anime Energy

This is an interesting story. It's something of a hybridized mixture of Narnia, D&D and LOTR with big Anime energy throughout. Good for a quick fantasy fix.

Great for picking right up!

This book was great! Kept my attention and even got my heart racing. It’s a wonderful book to read on the go because the chapters are short enough that you can just pick right up where you left off. And the fantasy/present times crossover is fascinating!
