THE STEWARD Weald Fae Journals Book 1 edition by Christopher Shields Children eBooks

I started reading this novel through the holidays. It dragged me back to its pages despite all the holiday insanity. I launched one of my own novels Christmas day, camped in front of my PC for hours, but I couldn't escape this book. I kept trying to find the time to snatch a few more minutes of reading.

About a 1/3 of the way in I was thoroughly seduced by the 2700 acre Weald. I found myself contemplating the purchase of real estate in Arkansas, and I've never been there. The author transported me to this enchanting countryside through three whole seasons of the year. Forestry, islands, country cottages, gardens, cliffs, caves, I could see it all crystal clear in my mind's eye.

The tale is an enthralling read about teenage Maggie's discovery that what she thought was a dead-end backwoods life in Arkansas is actually a secret sanctuary of the Weald Fae, a.k.a. Fairies. But these are not little Tinkerbelle pixie wing creatures. These are the demigods of old, masters of the elements. The Fae are extremely powerful, and not overly fond of mankind. Trespassers on the Weald property find horrible misfortune. And this brave teenage girl Maggie has been entrapped into a position of great responsibility and peril as the new Steward of the Weald.

It's a coming-of-age romance, an awesome supernatural thriller. It's a young adult paranormal fantasy. It's a damn good book for just about anyone of any age. I can't help but wish this was a movie.

And of course, I must read the second in the series, "The Changeling". The ending guarantees you cannot live without reading the next book. Hooked on the Weald.

THE STEWARD Weald Fae Journals Book 1 edition by Christopher Shields Children eBooks Reviews

Every once in a while we all discover something new. Something profound and unique that causes us to become distracted from the mundane and stressful elements of everyday life. We overlook our worries, our pains, our hurts, and even our hang-ups as we escape. For me one of those escapes is always found in fiction.

On more than one occasion I have cracked open a book to find myself moved by the words scattered across the page. There is nothing more magical when one can find themselves lost in the realm of fiction, especially one as magical as what I discovered with Christopher Shields book "The Steward Book one of the Weald Fae Journals.

This story took me back; to a time when I was little, hiking through the woods where I would create my own world of magic. The Steward is set in Arkansas along the Ozark Mountains. Christopher has brought us a story where modern day life collides with ancient folk lore that has come alive. Giving us one of the strongest female characters that I have ever read Shields leads us to uncover some of the mysterious history surrounding the legendary town of Eureka Springs Arkansas.

The story follows the life of Maggie, new to the Ozarks and struggling to fit in. But what is far more important is the strength she summons as she encounters the Fae. The discovery of what I once dismissed as silly Celtic lore was both educational as well as entertaining. I highly recommend this for anyone that wants to discover a new type of fantasy...
The Steward *SPOILER ALERT* I caught a chill within the first 2 pages of The Steward when David and Kyle were being watched by the Unseelie Fae, Chalen.

When Maggie first went to the caves for her first test, the anxiety, trepidation and plain old scared spitless was written so perfectly, I felt all that she went through. When she got stuck in the hole, I had a hard time breathing. I enjoyed the bouts of humor that is spread throughout the story, especially Maggie's little arguments with her younger brother and her transformation in seeing her new home in a different light after meeting the fae.

"I felt as if I had just awakened from a nap. I completely understood what they tried to tell me." That brief sentence right there, made me sit up straight. This was Maggie's (what I call) "Helen Keller Moment", where she is made fully aware of what it all means.

The battle scene with Gavin, Chalen and Ozara was riveting. My eyes were wide open with excitement...that scene was so skillfully written. Yea...I cried when Mitchell got the best present, which helped repair his relationship with his father...don't judge me. It's Chris's fault. He wrote it. And now, he's left me hanging. I got to get the Changeling next.

If a book invokes my emotion within the first couple of pages, I'm hooked. The Steward caught me hook, line and sinker.
