Darkness reigns unchallenged. For the villagers on the accursed Island, life has only one meaning – death. Bound to the Island by the curse, the villagers suffer beneath the iron claw of the serpent, daily breathing the poison of his breath and dying to appease his insatiable appetite. When Marya’s parents are slain by the serpent for their belief in a legendary king, she becomes an Outcast. Struggling to survive and avoid the vengeance of the Tribunal, Marya is torn between legend and the harsh reality of the Island. Yet when a forgotten promise springs to life, she cannot help wondering if the old stories might in fact be true. And if they are, will the promise prove stronger than the curse?

By The Script Spinner Gillian Bronte Adams has proven herself able to stand amongst the greats of Christian fantasy authors.This stand alone fantasy novella displays the incredible beauty and power of allegory. The prologue alone is the best representative of Lucifer's fall that I've ever read in fantasy. Gillian is a master of epic prose that grabs you tight and steals your breath.Alas, I lament that the story is rather short. I would have loved to see Gillian expand Marya's original plot-line in order to drive up suspense and mystery.Nonetheless, this is a wonderful example of quality writing and convicting truth that will capture any reader, especially those wishing to rediscover the epicness in the story of our fall and redemption.

Burton Out of Darkness Rising is a fast-paced but epic tale of a treacherous knight, a young girl's quest to survive, and a loving prince who seeks to liberate his subjects. The author effectively employs the third person omniscient narrative in order to explore characters' motivations, and the writing style is lyrical and action-packed.Arientyl, knight in service to the king, becomes jealous of his ruler and seeks recognition and prestige for himself. Cursed for his treachery, Arientyl is transformed into a hideous serpent and imprisoned in the Loch that surrounds the vast kingdom. The knight plots vengeance upon the king and his followers. Thus unfolds a tale about a kingdom of darkness where a tyrant rules with poison and ruthless death. Yet even in the darkness, light shines, for there are those who dare to defy the Serpent despite all cost. When Marya's parents dare to speak out, the punishment is swift and severe. Marya becomes an outcast, desperately scrounging for food in order to survive. A mysterious stranger offers Marya assistance, and things will never be the same.I particularly loved the imagery in this tale. Battle scenes are descriptive and suspenseful. A scene of heroism in the face of impending evil is gloriously depicted. I particularly loved Marya's character. She was determined, resourceful and vulnerable. My heart ached for her. Ms. Adams' story paints an enthralling word picture of redemption, one that is not easily forgotten. I thoroughly recommend this book. God bless you all.I received an advanced copy of this book from the author but was not obligated to write a review. All thoughts are my own.

I love it so much.The story itself was a powerful story of redemption. Written as an allegory of the fall of mankind and the promise of a savior, this book contain a wonderful fantasy world. It's divided into three parts. In the first, we have the discontented soldier who rebels against his king and is cast out of the kingdom. In the second, the knight has taken the form of a serpent and tempts the inhabitants of the kingdom with greater riches across the waters of the Loch. In the third, we get to know Marya, a young girl who's parents still believe in the kingdom far across the water and are killed for their beliefs. The girl becomes an outcast and lives on the fringes of the island where she meets a stranger who challenges all the rules of the island.I won't spoil the rest of the story although you might know what happens next. The story is well written and my only wish was that it would be longer. I'd have liked to see more of Marya and her interactions the mysterious stranger. Recommended to anyone who likes strong Christian allegories and stories of redemption.I received a free copy of the book from the author in exchange for my honest review.
