KANDIDE - THE LADY'S REVENGE
By Diana S. Zimmerman
Diana S. Zimmerman is a popular writer for the jewelry industry and is also a best-selling novelist so I am proud to put up some of her fantasy books on this site that I thought you might find interesting.
What if you had to choose between letting your sister die or saving the land you are sworn to protect?
Some days being Queen just isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Having regained her throne—or so Kandide thinks—by thwarting the powerful and merciless Lady Aron, she is faced with even greater threats.
When Kandide’s sister, Tara, mysteriously disappears, her wannabe wizard brother, Teren, and an Imperfect named Jake set off on a perilous journey to find the Bardic Council. They hope to discover the secret to breaking the spell that holds Tara captive. What they find are mountain paths that take them two steps back for every step forward, stalactites that drop to form prison cells, and caves with deadly tornados. What they learn is even more mysterious and treacherous.
While Teren and Jake search for answers, Kandide uncovers a plot by the Banshee nation to invade Calabiyau. Her army is outnumbered three to one. Convinced that one or more of her own Council members are involved in this treachery, she finds herself in a desperate struggle of magic and might. Kandide must choose between letting her sister die or saving her kingdom.
Be warned. Beware. Enter this Kingdom only if you dare.
What the critics say:
"Kandide is at the crossroads of invention and imagination. Zimmerman’s character variety provides moral conflict amid a fantasy component, where life-changing epiphanies are discovered along with fanciful adventures in pomegranate meadows, palaces, dark woods, and underwater caverns. You’ll be absorbed into 'Kandide and the Secret of the Mists' as if you were making the journey yourself. Zimmerman’s gentle, descriptive prose perches on the edge of poetry.” — Las Vegas Around the Clock
"This author knows her way around the redemptive tale. Diana S. Zimmerman does not stop at portraying fully fleshed lead characters. Set in the magical land of Calabiyau, Kandide is a must-read for all who treasure books and the finer impulses of human nature.” — Air America Radio
