King’s Champion by M.A. Abraham – a Review
Description:
For over four thousand years he has been an Elf to command respect from warriors and Kings alike. He is Torrent, Kings Champion and one of the few to go fearlessly into the dangers beyond the portal to form a bond with the Elven Empire there. He is held in great honor there, friend to the King and his sons. He has been sent by the Light King to relay an offer of friendship and help to bring the wars there to an end, for the King has seen a day when the boundary between their worlds will fail.
Serenity has shrouded her life in mystery. None save the King knows what she is or what she has done, for she walks a path she would rather none know of. She is an Elf of great beauty and great talent and with one look of her silver blue eyes she has brought one of the greatest Elves her people have known to his knees, for they are Life Mates, and though he would charge into her life and take it over, she would only have him once he has come to learn her ways. Theirs is a battle of wills and learning to bend with the raging winds of fate.
Review:
King’s Champion by M.A. Abraham is the 3rd novel in her Elven Chronicles series. This story revolves mostly around Torrent and Serenity, as they are this book’s lifemates, though every character we have loved from the start of this series, plays a major role in the story.
As much as Torrent is the King’s Champion, and a worthy match for the magnificent Serenity, this book belongs mostly to her. I loved most of the women of the Elven Chronicles, with Eden being my favorite. However in King’s Champion, Serenity rises up to match Eden as my favorite heroine.
As the story begins, Daroth gives Serenity an assignment to meet with King Garoldth. Torrent has already left for the portal to bring the villian of Marious Story, Brennor home to meet his fate. They will eventually meet, but Serenity is on a private mission that even Torrent cannot know. Torrent is very forceful in showing Serenity how he feels, and his determination to rule her to his way. He has met his match in Serenity. Lol
The main story though is to help King Garoldth, and his kingdom, which is in a different portal. It is being destroyed by demons, and the female population is almost gone, having been captured and destroyed by the demons. Daroth has offered his help to save Garoldth’s people, with his warriors, and the Dragon fleet. Serenity is the major player, as she will handle bringing all the Dragon riders, and Dragons forth to fight and destroy the demons in Garoldth’s kingdom. To ensure the elves from this kingdom are safe, Serenity informs them they must all leave through the portal, before the Dragons arrive for battle.
Spells by Eden to help increase the population will cause some havoc, but this is a fun part of the story. Seeing Serenity with her Dragon Riders, and mostly meeting the wonderful Dragons was great. I loved Alleria, the White Dragon, who belonged to Serenity, and enjoyed reading about the Red, Black, Silver, & Gold Dragons. For whatever reason, I was not a big fan of Torrent, who does not match Gabriel, Marious, Daroth, Larek as lifemates, but I adored Serenity. It is wonderful to see all of our favorites again, and the storyline was fun, exciting and I enjoyed reading this book very much. In King’s Champion, M.A. Abraham keeps the flow and fun going in this wonderful series.
