The Secret of the Keepers: Kailmeyra's Strength (Kailmeyra, #2) by Elizabeth Isaacs



Published November 1st 2011 by EFIsaacs

Elizabeth Isaacs, has done it again! She has pulled me into the world of Kailmeyra, and left me stunned at the beauty of her work.

The Secret of the Keepers: Kailmeyra's Strength (Kailmeyra #2) was awesome. It picks up right where The Light of Asteria leaves off.

Nora is now married to the man of her dreams and living in the beautiful land of Kailmeyra, where beautiful creatures roam about and where the pure of hearts live.

The darkness of the Dokkalfar threatens the purity and peace of the land. Nora is continuing her education from Malachi, the Ancient one. The clan grows stronger as well as the rest of the Alfar, but the threat of war is closing in.

Nora, is faced with so much in this book. I felt her emotions. Her pain, happiness and frustrations and her strength.

Mia has joined forces with the Dokkalfar, and she has knowledge of something that is vital to the Alfar's survival and the land of Kailmeyra, itself. With a heavy heart and a major responsibility, Nora proves her strength and love.


All the great characters we became to love are back and we meet a new character, Rune, who is absolutely awesome! I love his blatent personality and the say-it-how-it-is approach.

We reach a new depth throughout the journey; learning to make choises and decisions based on pure intent and not selfeshness. The love and strength of love and loss, defeating the dark and embracing the light. Seeking the good out of the bad.

"Protecting you will never be a burden, Nora. It is my instinct...my privilege."

I loved this book and can't wait to get my hands on the next one. The waiting is always agony, but with some stories, it's worth the wait...

The Light of Asteria, is breathtaking! This story truly was something of perfection. Elizabeth Isaacs, has an amazing way of pulling you into the characters roll. I felt as though I was in the book, experiencing everything at the same time.

The plot was great and the characters were stunning. But what I can't manage to express here, is that The Light of Asteria will leave an imprint on you. There's such a deep devotion and love between Nora and Gavin. There's such a strong undeniable connection between them. Their journey was unique and touching. The strength that Nora possesses and the will to defeat the Dokkalfar kept me flipping through those pages.

This may be my first book about Elfs, but they aren't the toy making kind you would think that lives with Santa. I couldn't put this book down. Do yourself a service and read this book.

Quotes:

"To this day, I've never felt anything like that kiss. It was pure commitment and devotion. Those emotions wrote themselves across my heart with a finality I knew would be forever."

"I love you with all of my heart, soul, mind, and hopefully soon my body, oh great Prince of the Alfar, Gavin of Frey."

"I will always love you, even if you aren't a place I can call my own."

"The purity of your spirit strengthens me; the thought of never again experiencing your mind is unbearable. What I need to know is...can you accept me for who I am? Can you love someone not of your world?"
