The Sapphire Rose by David Eddings

5.0

5 Stars

The Sapphire Rose is the third book in the Elenium series by David Eddings. Even though this is a three book series, it really reads like one book, so I will be reviewing the series as such.
As I have mentioned before, David Eddings has always been a favourite author of mine, having provided many hours of epic adventures for me to lose myself in- so his books are amongst my most memorable reads, if only for happy and sentimental reasons. One of my reading buddies, my brother from another mother, and I have been on a trip down memory lane reading books that captivated us through the years. We both refer to David Eddings as one of our favourite authors- so as part of our reading challenge for 2019 we added his collection of books to our challenge.
I have really enjoyed revisiting these books, as I have done several times throughout the years. In fact, I still remember the first time I lost myself in these stories, and I guess I will never tire of revisiting his adventures.
There is a lot more to this story than first meets the eye. With wonderful world building- it’s fast-paced and full of adventure, magic, spells, action, knights, and more- it is a light, easy, and very entertaining read.
The plot is similar to his other works, but different enough to keep things interesting. There’s never a dull moment as the characters are thrown from one difficult situation right into another.
The Elenium Series books are:
-The Diamond Throne (Book #1)
-The Ruby Knight (Book #2)
-The Sapphire Rose (Book #3)

Happy Reading!
