Anyways, I have just finished this book called Dragonswood, by Janet Lee Carey. Though, you should really read the first companion book, Dragon's Keep, first. They are both good books, but in my case, my favorite is Dragonswood. They are companion books, set about two family generations apart. They have fey, dragons and humans in it! Be excited! Very good books.
Another one is the Graceling Series by Kristin Cashore This is widely known, but at the same time, unknown. It was and is one of my favorite series. First comes Graceling, which about a girl named Katsa. She is a graceling, one of the few people with different colored eyes. And a speical ability. At first, it is belived her grace was to kill. But it was not. You will have to read it yourself to find out what her real graceling power is.
The second book, which is a comapanion book, called Fire. It is about another girl, far away from where Katsa is. Thier peoples do not know of each other. Fire is a monster, so some say, beautiful beyond compare, making men go limp with desire of her. Almost everyone is affected, expect one certain prince, whos brother clings to the throne. Thrown into the war of the throne, Fire must use every skill she has to make it thorugh and live. But that doesn't mean that you can't have romance along the way!
The third book is also a companion book called, Bitterblue. Set about 16 years after Graceling, Bitterblue is a queen over a town where a mad man's hold had been. She has been working hard to keep up with her work inside of the castle, but not the outside. ( Quick little jot. Bitterblue was saved from her father, the mad man king, by Katsa.) She gets curious and one night, sneaks away from the castle. She discovers taverns, and meets two men. Bitterblue finally discovers what is actually outside of the castle, but another war is brewing. It's up to Bitterblue to quell it. She discovers new friends along the way, nasty secrets about what her father did and was, and a little bit about love. Oh! And also a little surpirses near the middle endish. Some old characters are coming back for a visit!
Read all of the Graceling seies, a bitter sweet series that you will be longing for more of when you are done. That's all for today!
PS They have the Graceling series in many different languages!
