#0016A The Chronicles of Shyra: The Stone of Time - Joe Naff

I haven't read a really fantasy book in awhile. I had to get used to different languages and reading about dragons on a normal basis. Not that that's bad at all. You always have to get into a different frame of mind when you read any fantasy or science fiction book.

Shyra is a young princess of Sorenia who on her birthday sets out on a coming of age adventure; which is really riding in a carriage to the next town of Breman. That is not an adventure at all. Little did Shyra know that their vacation...I mean "adventure" gets inturrupted by an army of analets that take her and her best friend Gaiden to Sorenia's enemy castle of Desia. The book follows Shyra and her friends as they are off to find the Desa stone that can control time itself and hopefully bring peace to the world of Darium.

I feel like I'm not explaining this book well. So much happens on each page. The book held my attention well and there is plenty of action in each chapter, but just a little predictable. Maybe I just figure stuff out well. 3.5 stars
