The Sleeper Awakes by Eilis Flynn

Woot! My scribe's friend, Eilis Flynn is partying this week, because her latest The Sleeper Awakes, is available April 10!!!

I asked my scribe to post her review again, and here it is:

The Sleeper Awakes
by Eilis Flynn
April 2007, Cerridwen Press

Ms. Flynn pens a fantastical tale of adventure and love. Catherine Deveney doesn't have long to live. She has a malignant tumor, a crippled leg, and a lover who would love to marry her to get her insurance money. An earthquake hits Seattle and Cat is crushed under a table. When she awakens, she's in a foreign land with strange people and a macabre natural disaster--waterfire.

Strian, Prince of Kurit and brother to the Court, is suspicious of Cat and suspects her of spying for the man who killed his nephew while attempting to usurp the throne. But the prince needs her for the Ritual to stay the power of the waterfire and save the kingdom from certain destruction.

The love of the people in Kurit helps Cat become a determined woman, bold enough to fulfill her duty to the people. She agrees to accompany Strian in a physically and mentally challenging quest to complete the Ritual. But her heart has been wounded in her other life, so can she be brave enough to let Strian into her heart?

This debut book pulled me in from the first page and kept me reading way past my bedtime. If you love fantasy with a dollop of romance, this is the book for you. Eilis Flynn is a author to remember, and is definitely a new addition to my autobuy list!
