This is my third book by Author Simcox. I’ve read The Warble, The Shard and The Medallion was such an added treat. Many trilogies fail to capture the essence of the first book, but this one is ever more ramped up! Here are young female warrior, Kristina is fighting to find a book of prophecy so she can return to her beloved home. She also needs to find her love Werrien. She teams up with a powerful wizard. She’s even got a dragon that takes her to mysterious lands. A long-time friend from her past comes into the scene to help her on her quest, yet his appearance holds much mystery. The setting descriptions really transport the reader to this magical land of Bernovem.This is truly excellent fantasy literature. As an educator I feel this series should be adopted into all middle grade classrooms.
Having read Book #1 - The Warble, and Book #2 - The Shard, I couldn't wait to dive into Book #3 - The Medallion. I'm happy to say the author didn't disappoint. She took the main characters, Kristina and Werrien, in a direction I couldn't have anticipated. It kept the series fresh and made me want to keep reading. There were plenty of surprises that had me thinking, 'wow!'. Kristina and Werrien's journey in this book is about their survival and trying to figure out who's good/who's evil. The author does an excellent job of describing her characters, where the action is taking place, and how they feel as things unfold. I truly enjoyed this fantasy adventure and look forward to Book #4.
Having loved the first two volumes in the Bernovem Chronicles, I've been waiting anxiously for this book. It was with great anticipation that I began - wanting to discover more of the story and also not wanting it to end. Kristina's journey brings more peril and growth which surprised and swept me away. The author has brought in new elements to make this a truly epic tale. "The Medallion (The Bernovem Chronicles Book 3)" by Victoria Simcox, does not disappoint, in fact it is my favorite book of the series - enchanting and exciting. Highly recommended. Five stars.
Good things don’t always happen when we want them to, and we have to wait. The waiting often is worth it, though. Take Author Victoria Simcox’s latest novel, THE MEDALLION (THE BERNOVEM CHRONICLES BOOK 3) in her series. After reading the first two books I looked forward to the next one. And it finally is here. In THE MEDALLION (THE BERNOVEM CHRONICLES BOOK 3) we meet our favorite characters again, along with some not so favorite characters, the troublemakers, of course. As we travel along with Kristina and Hector through the world of Bernovem, in their search for the Wizard Azaril, we encounter all sorts of strange creatures: angels, a dragon, serpent, and bats. The author describes each character vividly, making them seem almost alive.Then there’s Sentiz, the queen, on a quest of her own to find the Medallion and insure she’ll be the ruler of Bernovem. Several plots are going on in the story, and the author switches to different point-of-view characters to let the reader see their thoughts and reactions to the events taking place.If you enjoy reading about magic, amazing and unusual creatures, some good, some evil, then pick up a copy of THE MEDALLION and travel along with Kristina and the other characters as they face almost impossible odds to reach their goals. Victoria Simcox has written another lovely story that will charm you and have you waiting for the next book in the series.
This covers the end times in the fantasy land of Bernoven. The hope is that Kristina and Werrien can gain control and bring about a peaceful rule that promotes goodness. Unfortunately, the wicked Sentiz has a hold on Werrien and Kristina’s being flown here and yon on the back of a dragon. Sentiz is doing horrible, evil things to everyone she touches in the kingdom, including Werrien, and things look pretty bleak. A guy from Kristina’s past helps her escape many misadventures, but what are his motives? Kristina wants desperately to be re-united with Werrien, but is that possible with Sentiz’s evil power? If they are re-united is there any way Werrien will ever be the same again?Ms. Simcox paints an evil time in this fantasy land and the reader wonders if it’s possible for her characters to escape their horrible situations. The question of whether or not good can overcome evil and the plights of the characters keep the reader turning pages. I recommend this book for those who enjoy reading about the battle of evil against good and fantasy.
THE MEDALLION, 3rd in the Bernovem Chronicles Book series, continues in the tradition of classic fairy tales and storytelling. This is the third book I've read by this author and, as with the previous two, I found myself quickly pulled into the pages and unable to put it down.Kristina and Hector embark on another fantastic journey through the magical land of Bernovem, a place where fantasy creatures abound, including wizards, serpents, and dragons. They search for a supernatural Medallion with unbelievable powers, which can grant Kristina the ability to change fate, good or bad.As with all great Children's Books, THE MEDALLION is a great read for adults as well, and it instills important life lessons which any child can learn from. Gather the children around, pull up a chair, and read this one out loud, and I think you're going to see some wide-eyes and amazed expressions.
