There is so much of this story that grabbed me as soon as that solider called a tiger “Your Majesty” I wanted to know what this beautifully illustrated story was about. There are some great things put in here, some magical place, some magical animals that may or may not be people, some kinda spirit guide/yoda character, kingdoms, marriage to unite kingdoms, and a relationship between a solider and a queen. It has so many interesting things going for it and yet none of it is set up to be interesting. The story of this book isn't very smooth and the flow just isn't there. There isn't any character development or relationships SHOWN, just told, so it's hard to connect and care.

!!BUT!!! I felt reading this book and it's amazing illustrations was 100% worth it. It really got my imagination going and I hope to continue reading this story! ~Ashley
