amulets, holding the souls of King Rexa and his beloved wife, must be reunited.
The fate of the free world is in jeopardy and the blazing sky shall herald
their coming.
This book was worth reading it
kept my attention throughout. It had everything you could want in a fantasy
adventure. Romance and intrigue, it had a fast pace and there was no dull
moment. The characters all had their own unique personalities. The
author truly captivated me with this book and the romance provided was
satisfying enough to my needs that it did not need any heavy sex scenes
This novel came to an enjoyable close. When it came to the end, it
made me want to buy the next book in the series Awakening Sands because I
enjoyed the book so much, and because it ends in a cliff-hanger.
Revealing Rexa, begins with the search for a lost amulet. It must be
reunited with the other that it belongs with. The two were created for a
King and Queen long ago, and after they died, their souls were bound to the
amulets, along with the great powers that they held. It was meant for the
succeeding Kings and Queens to wear in order to protect the land and rule it
honourably. Unfortunately, the King’s amulet got lost and hadn’t been
seen since. The queen’s has continued to pass through the generations,
allowing for some protection of the people, but now that magic alone is not
enough. There are dark forces at work that want to destroy the amulets
and all of those who are living in the kingdom.
This forces the royal
houses to seek help from a class of people, Revealers, who wield magic and are
experienced in fighting and carrying out important missions. Sand, one of
the most powerful among this class, is tasked to aid the Queen and future King
in their quest. Along with them is Miyam, a woman with her own powers,
and secrets. Together they embark on a dangerous journey that will take
them across the land into places few have travelled or even seen before.
They are the only ones who may be successful before the dark forces take
over.
