Veiled Rose

My on the house copy of Veiled Rose was read quickly.

Anne Elisabeth Stengl has done it again! Veiled Rose is as good, if not better, than the first book in The Tales of Goldstone Wood series - Heartless. It is a beautiful blend of fantasy and Christianity. The trials Rose Red undergoes to keep her word and stay true to herself is something everyone should take to heart: the easy path is not always the best path and trusting Him is all one can do at times.

Stengl continues her series by telling the tale of Leonard the Lightening Tongue, the jester from Heartless, and his unusual friendship with Rose Red. Leonard is more commonly known as Lionheart, crown prince of the Southlands.

I can't wait until April comes and with it the next Tale of Goldstone Wood: Moonblood.
