SUNRISE OF AVALON
Anna Elliott

Reviewed by Audrey Lawrence
Posted October 19, 2011

Women's Fiction Historical

The former High Queen Isolde was only able to see part of the vision before it shattered and left her with more questions than answers. It was a battle to the death but whose? Her lover, her husband, the strong and handsome Trystan was the son of King Marche, but since he was perceived by many to be an outlaw, they could not be together. Yet, she yearned to have him by her side. If only they could be together, but it was not to be. He had a mission and no one could stop him.

Secretly married, Isolde was carrying Trystan's baby. No one must know, including Trystan, as it is too dangerous and she will have to keep it to herself and as long as possible. Yet, knowing eyes see but would they help or bring the enemy? Sent to a convent for safety, Isolde used her skills as a healer to help mend the badly wounded soldiers or to offer them a soothing touch, if beyond her help.

Exhausted by the work and the high numbers of men to be helped, Isolde did not mind the strain, but the wounds she saw were a constant reminder of the dangers Trystan was in. Could he avoid capture or death from the visions of battles she saw? But now, with men ruthlessly searching for her in the convent, in this safe place, was she to be captured and die before Trystan could return?

SUNRISE OF AVALON is Book 3 in Anna Elliott's Arthurian legendary Twilight of Avalon series and it concludes the story of Isolde and Trystan. With her meticulous research and rich and detailed writing style, Elliott spins a spelling binding story with a fast moving plot that brings your right into the deep forests and castles of medieval Britain as the British attempt to thwart the ever increasing Saxon invasion. While enthralling on its own, it is probably best read in sequence as they are a multiple of kings, alliances, and related characters. Be warned, once you settle into this special world, you may find it hard to escape as you want to keep reading just to find out what happens next!

SUMMARY

She is a healer, a storyteller, and a warrior. When Britain is faced with threats both old and new, the strength of her love may be the kingdom’s downfall . . . or salvation. Their love has overcome endless obstacles. Never ones to shy away from danger, former High Queen Isolde and Trystan, a mercenary with a lonely and troubled past, have already endured a perilous journey to keep the underhanded Lord Marche from the throne of Britain. But now a new traitor lurks amongst the kings on Britain’s High Councilβ€”and just when they’ve realized the depth of their love for each other, a new danger calls Trystan from Isolde’s side to test the strength of their secret marriage vow. Only Isolde knows that she is carrying Trystan’s unborn child. As Britain’s armies prepare for a final battle in which they will either turn back the tide of the invaders or see their kingdom utterly destroyed, Isolde must undertake yet another daring missionβ€”one that will bring her even nearer to a secret that Trystan has kept for seven long years. As the clouds of war gather, Trystan and Isolde must once again fight to protect Britain’s throne. Together, they hold the key that can defeat the Saxon king, Octa of Kent, and Lord Marche. But the cost of Britain’s sovereignty may be their own forbidden love. Based on the earliest written version of the Arthurian tales, Anna Elliott’s Sunrise of Avalon breathes new life into an age-old legend and brings the story of Trystan and Isolde to an unforgettable end.
