Got a wonderful 4 Star review for Ursula's Quest

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful:
4.0 out of 5 stars Can't Wait for #3!, November 20, 2010
By Maggie Naylon "menaylon" (New Paltz, NY USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ursula's Quest: Book Two of The Witchcraft Wars (Paperback)
I am loving this series and am eager to get my hands on the third book. I won the first book Erich's Plea in a Goodreads giveaway and quickly purchased this second story on my kindle. I have really enjoyed reading both of Alley's stories and can only hope that #3 is not far off!


Still on sale for only $0.99  Smiley

Hi all,
Ursula's Quest, the second in the Witchcraft Wars series, is still on sale for only $0.99 till the end of April.  The final, Slade's Destiny will be released at the end of March so you still have time to read the first two before the series comes to its' explosive end.

Cheers,

Hi all,
Yep I'm still plugging away at my novels in The Witchcraft Wars series.  Available in ebook and paperback at the moment Ursula's Quest is on sale for only $0.99 till the end of April.  Don't forget you can try before you buy by sampling from Amazon, Smashwords, Freado or my website or Facebook page.

I'd also really love some reviews from anyone who's already read it or anyone who grabs a copy now to read - it's very review poor on the Amazon site  Cry

Cheers,

The Witchcraft Wars has now finally drawn to a close with the release of Slade's Destiny.  Ursula's Quest, Book Two is still out there though and could really use some reviews - I know you're out there and have read it so please, if you wouldn't mind a little review good or bad would really put a smile on my already smilin' face.

Sadly the sale however is now at an end, the new price for all the novels is $3.45 but the short stories are still available for $0.99 if you want to see my writing style and become acquainted with the characters and the land of Kaynos before you take the plunge.

Thanks to all of those who've read the book and especially those who've taken the time to email me to say how much they enjoyed it.  So I'll sign off with a small plea - don't let this fabulous middle child be neglected  Wink

Cheers all,
Trace  Grin

Hopefully should get some new reviews for Ursula's Quest - I've had about eleven requests from reviewers in the last two days so that's really exciting.  I'm not sure if it's still on sale but either way even at $3.45 it's a great, cheap read.

Cheers all,

Hi all,
Thought I'd share a couple of my latest reviews for Ursula's Quest with you:

4.0 out of 5 stars Great read!, August 22, 2011
By Jessica L. Buike - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ursula's Quest: Book Two of The Witchcraft Wars (Paperback)
The second book in The Witchcraft Wars Trilogy is Ursula's Quest, and we learn more about Slade's sister, the beautiful princess Ursula. She also partakes on a journey, and we meet some additional characters along the way. Her quest is going on at the same time as Slade's, though they don't realize that they are both working towards a similar goal until the end. We also learn more about Ulrich, their eldest brother who has taken over the throne in a deceitful manner and has alliances with The Dark One and his counterpart, the witch Shallendara. This book still had quite a bit of action, but I felt it not to be as interesting as the first and third books.

4.0 out of 5 stars Live To Read, August 18, 2011
By Chels - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ursula's Quest: Book Two of The Witchcraft Wars (Paperback)
This was a surprisingly interesting novel. The main character, Slade, has been following his fathers' advice in dreams. He and a few others travel to attempt to find the answer that he believes his dreams are pushing him towards. In his second dream, Slade is searching for the Great Dragon; a quest he believes was given to him by his father.

Ursula, Slade's sister, also believes she is receiving dreams from their father. She is told to search for a key among the ruins...she goes to the temple and searches for the key with a few friends. She finds one key only to discover that there are two other keys.

Brother and sister are racing against an evil witch to complete their given tasks. Will they make it? This novel was interesting as the characters were likable and fun to read about. The events are fast-paced and different from those that a reader might see in another novel of the same genre. The ending is exciting as the reader learns that there will be a third novel in this series. This book is recommended to young adults/teens who enjoy fantasy.

Ursula's Quest available in ebook for only $3.45 - come and join in the fun in Kaynos  Smiley

Cheers,

Here's a small snippet from Ursula's Quest


Without conscious thought her hands drifted down and clasped gently over her small yet distinctly swollen belly, lightly caressing the unborn child within.  A child that Ursula’s vow of chastity, made in order to become a Monk of the Black Lotus, meant was expressly forbidden.  Even worse than breaking her vow it was a child conceived without the benefit of a temple wedding, and furthermore to a man of no status.  It was a child who should have been a prince but instead would be an outcast in her native Vestland. An unborn baby that never should have been.  A child that was the product of a love she could never have denied.  It was a baby that Ursula found she already loved with a fierce protectiveness that shocked her.
   Once her pregnancy was revealed she would immediately forfeit her role as a Monk of the Black Lotus. She would be forced to abdicate her position as Princess of the Blood of Vestland and would become a virtual pariah amongst her own people.  As she stood there contemplating her fate, and that of her unborn baby, Ursula began to tremble.  Her own downfall she could face, she had known the risks she took each time she lay with him, but the fate of her child was almost unbearable.  What exactly she had intended to do regarding her unexpected pregnancy she had not been clear about.  Then her forced flight from her older brother Ulrich's murderous rage and the subsequent preparations for war in these subterranean caverns had rendered any and all half-formed plans redundant anyway.


An adventurous, intriguing tale of fantasy, magic, witchcraft and a world on the brink of total destruction.  All for only $3.45

Usula's Quest, Book Two of The Witchcraft Wars trilogy is receiving some great reviews across the net and on Goodreads. This novel focuses more on Slade's sister Ursula and her own adventures in trying to save Kaynos from the most devastating war The Kingdoms will ever see.

To all of you who've read it and enjoyed I thank you and if you haven't why not give it a try - it's got plenty of action, suspense, intrigue, betrayal, love, magic and cliffhanger drama.

Cheers,

Ursula's Quest not only continues Slade's journey to save his father as begun in Erich's Plea but puts Ursula on her own quest - will she risk everything, even her unborn baby to save those she loves?

Following Erich's Plea is this little gem - Ursula's Quest.  This one answers a few questions, asks a few more and continues the adventure begun in the first of The Witchcraft Wars

Hi all,
Ursula's Quest is still selling consistently as part of The Witchcraft Wars series but I'd really love some new reviews.  If you're interested in doing a review for me send me a PM and I'll get you a copy ASAP.
