Enchanted Flames by Lyndsey Hall

4.0

“Death is not kind, but eternity can be cruel in its own way.”
~A Candle Burns In Herboshi, Ben Lang

I might not be a fantasy buff, but once in a while I love indulging myself into this imaginary world with vivid imageries, dragons running around & the protagonists winning over the evil forces.

"Enchanted Flames" is a collection of 10 Magical short stories by authors—Alice Ivinya, Astrid V.J., Elena Shelest, Jo Holloway, Lyndsey Hall, N.D.T. Casale, Sky Sommers, Ben Lang, Xander Cross, Donna White—and as the name suggests, each story contains within themselves the element of 'Fire'.

Some of the stories are finite, some continuation from their previous installation 'Enchanted Forests' & some establishing suspense for the author's future works.

I loved the diversity in the world building, the cultures & the languages where the tales are set, and how they play with the gender dynamics.

My favorites are "A Candle Burns in Herboshi" & "Hero of the Weyverns".

Some tales are deep, questioning human motives and some easy going adventure tales; but each different in its own way and they stand apart.

If you're a fantasy lover, you need to check out this book & all the other books the authors have published.

Thank you to the authors' team for providing me the ARC in return for honest reviews.✨

P.S. The book's releasing on 18th June, and the profits from the books sale will go towatds supporting communities affected by wildfires. It would mean a lot if you could go ahead & make your contribution.
