The Hunters’ Quest, book two of the Hunters’ of Reloria series, begins with a short, precise prologue, recapping events from book one, The Elven Jewel.This traditional story line has widened its scope, in colour and thought to add an explosion of delight. New fantasy and mythical creatures are introduced as the Hunters’ journey northward to the Elven city. They require support from the Elves in finding the elusive Mage, that will assist their quest in saving, The Relorian Jewel, Shari- Rose.The story remains informal and witty in tone and voice. A continuation of the aesthetic quality, with harmony and rhythm was quietly executed. There are well crafted settings, scenes and themes with simplicity and clarity in writing. Word choices were relevant and poetic, captivating and often very humorous. The younger readers will be sure to enjoy the continuation of the misadventures the Hunters’ tackle.
