Keeper of Earth

I am 21 years old and I absolutly loved this series of books. Although i didn't like one part in this book (anyone that has read it will know what i am talking about) that part was sad! I really hope Jenna continues her jouney and continues to write more books! Keep up the awesome work!

So Good, so good!

Jenna Solitaire is your average teenager except for the fact that she is the Keeper of the Boards. The Boards are magical artifacts that only the Keeper can use to their full power, but Jenna isn't just a regular Keeper. She is the last Keeper in the family line of Solitaire, and is prophesised to master all the Boards and prevent the destruction of the world. I love this series so much because it takes place in our current year, and is very realistic with behavior and what-not. A mixture of adventure, romance, and fantasy, this book rocks!!! Best read by 12+, but is enjoyable by all ages. This book keeps you reading at the darkest hour of night!

I Love This Series!

The Daughter of Destiny series is one of the best and most original that I've read in a long time. I hope the author continues to write as I am eager to discover what's next.

SIMPLY INCREDIBLE

Jenna Solitaire has taken the real world, and imposed upon it a wonderful, creative, magical idea. She not only created a new idea of how a world with magic would work, but grafted it onto this one, impressively interweaving real historical events within her own story, making this world of magic where a young woman has to collect these boards of the elements that much more believable. A descendant of a long line of powerful women, Jenna Solitaire, at the death of her father, discovers that she is the heir to an amazing title: Keeper of the Boards. Her ultimate great grandmother, a powerful sorceress from the time of Babylon, wove a powerful enchantment to endow a set of wooden boards with the power of the elements (and other wooden boards with various other powers). The boards did gain that power, in the form of powerful entities inhabiting them with their own agenda: the opening of the way. To stop this the boards were hidden all over the world, until one of the sorceress's descendants could collect them and prevent this tragedy. That descendant is Jenna, and now she is trying to find these boards. READ THESE BOOKS!!!!!!!!!

Definitely One to be Read!!!

I love the Daughter of Destiny series. I am a little puzzle by why little people seem to notice this new series probably because there's so many fantasy/paranoid releases this year. Fans of Alex Archer's Rouge Angel and Kim Harrison I garantee will fall in love with this series. I will be very dissapointed if this book be the last. I suggest people buy and read this and save this new and very promising series. **Having found the Board of Fire, Jenna and Simon hurry to devipher the clues that will lead them to the Board of Earth-and mastery over the very land itself. But on their way to locate the tomb of a mythical English hero, and fending off shadowy new atttackers who want the Boards for themselves, an offer of help comes from a surprising sorce. Can Jenna and Simon trust this offer-or are they walking straight into a trap set by the one who has covered the Boards for millenia?**
