Daughter of Summer ( Immortals 1)
By Victoria A. Williams
⭐️⭐️⭐️

Volatile secret powers. An arranged marriage. An Immortal Prince.

For the first time in over a century, Immortal Prince, Dagen, is to take a mortal wife. Both feared and revered across the world, Dagen leaves his home of snow and twilight to retrieve her. But in order to ensure his intended, Eira of Vasaros, does not fear him, he deceives her, pretending to be an emissary.

In a world of rising tensions, Eira knows an arranged marriage will provide a welcome alliance. She willingly accepts her duty but that doesn’t stop her from fearing her future.

Eira is hiding a secret power that she doesn't understand and struggles to control. She is afraid of the emissary who has come to retrieve her, yet finding an attraction that could cause untold turmoil. The closer she gets to him, the stronger her powers become. In a world still distrusting of magic, Eira is desperate to protect herself and does the only thing she can – has the knowledge of her powers bound by a Secret Keeper.

Journey through a world of colourful magical characters, Fae influences, a fearsome warrior race and secret powers.

I quite enjoyed it. It was a fun quick easy read. The only thing holding it back from a 4star was it being very predictable. The characters are likeable the story is interesting and it’s well paced.

A group of four outcasts band together to summon a dark god to help them increase their powers of witchcraft to do harm or to enrich their lives. This movie however is very twisted and dark (as it should be) and gives us some scares every now and then.

A very average Bond outing. There isn't much of it that stands out? Not up there with the best of them in terms of plot, villains, action, stunts and chases. Watching it now it seems very outdated, you can see where Austin Powers got most of the jokes from in this.

Depp at his peak powers in this horror fable, the surroundings and gothic visuals get a special mention as they are very much Tim Burton's trademark.
Its an exposition heavy murder mystery that has great character actors and is quite comical.
Very entertaining and thoroughly enjoyable adaptation of Irving's novel.
