Strong hold ( Dragon Star book 1)
By Melanie Rawn

A generation of peace is about to be shattered as a seemingly unstoppable invasion force lays siege to High Prince Rohan's realm. For Andry, the Sunrunner Lord, the invasion is a fulfilment of his long-ago visions of disaster to come. This is the first book in the "Dragon Star" trilogy.

This was a bit meh for me after the catch up and then the initial excitement of the war it got a bit tedious in the middle but ended strongly. I think the next few books are definitely a must read so I’ll keep going!

This book is about Lou, a currently unemployed person who has no idea what to do with her life, and a surprise vacation to Scotland. Intermingled with modern day Scotland, we have the Scotland of the 1500's and specifically Isobel Key. I loved how the story was intertwined and things from the past had relevance in the 'here and now'. I also enjoyed how Lou grew and changed as the story goes along and becomes more self-confident. Intriguing story and with a splash of mystery and romance. Really enjoyed it.

Independent Reviewer for Archaeolibrarian - I Dig Good Books!


This is the 3rd instalment of the Magical Mystery Book Club, and it is as fantastic as the previous 2. Elizabeth has a way of writing that pulls you in from the get-go and keeps you guessing the mystery all the way through until it's solved. I can't say too much as it would give too much away but most people complain about book clubs, and say they are a bit drab, but I would love to join this one!


Well done, Elizabeth. Another fantastic story. Keep them coming.
