The Gems of Elsana, Book 2

By: Christian Sterling

Narrated by: KC Wayman

They’re back. More battles. More banter. More boo yattah.

Following a tumultuous journey through the Wildbarrens, Falin, Red, Jimbuah, Melquin, Bossador, Nym, and Carthon find themselves prepared to embark into the Magpie Isles, the mysterious set of islands where the sea shakes hands with the bizarre. Based on Falin’s map, the third Gem for his staff hides on the island of Hadrones, the same island where the nefarious warlocks Nyril and Mulgus seek an ancient, mythical source of power.

Our beloved heroes face a new level of strange in the Magpie Isles, meeting both friend and foe while being dragged into unexpected adventures. Their journey sheds new light onto the looming war in the Freelands among a greater threat to all of Elsana. The company’s spirits are challenged and their minds are tested as they cross paths with merpeople, pirates, and peculiar creatures beyond imagination.

In Christian Sterling’s sequel novel of The Gems of Elsana series, The Magpie Isles brings us to a story rife with the feel-good fantasy we so much enjoy. Return to Elsana, and delve into a world that will have you shouting Boo Yattah!

A Bit Disappointing After Loving Book1

My 17 year old read this one after really liking the first book and said this one started out good but then went a bit down hill from there. The narrator is ok but mispronounced a few things that were a bit irritating like "Magpee" instead of Magpie. It slows down a lot after they leave the Sculley islands and he really had a hard time finishing it.

Parents- PG- Really geared toward middle school and up
Language- none
Violence- PG- nothing overly graphic- fighting scenes
Sexual Content- PG- LGBT, kissing scenes, it is kept pretty clean

Incredible

Wonderfully told story. These are heroes you can root for. Great job by the narrator as well
