About the Book: Accompanied by two knights, both wrongly accused of
treason, Issylte, a healer who possesses magic of the forests, flees
Avalon. The trio travels to Bretagne, where Issylte heals a critically injured
wolf and obtains fiercely loyal, shapeshifting allies. While in Brocéliande,
Issylte discovers a passion with Tristan which transcends all bounds. When she
becomes the Lady of the Mirrored Lake, sworn to defend the sacred waters of the
Goddess Dana, Issylte must undertake a perilous quest to discover what
priceless object lies hidden in its murky depths. As a nascent evil emerges,
the two lovers face a diabolical trio which threatens their lives, their love,
and their kingdoms.
Our Review: An epic story populated by elves and dwarfs; knights,
both black and white; Priestesses of the Tribe of the Goddess Dana, is a study
of the author’s devotion to history as well as her talent and imagination. The
writing is fluid and descriptive, the settings lush and colorful, the
characters varied and interesting. Kudos to author Jennifer Ivy Walker
for her strength and perseverance.
On a scale of 1-5, The Lady of the
Mirrored Lake merits a 4.5.
