Product Description
Can One Woman Save the Elves?
It has been two hundred years since the Gate last opened, spilling forth an enemy that irrevocably altered the world. Now comes Earth-woman, Kassanderae, a strangely-clad Visitor with even odder ideas, landing right across the path of a mysterious traveler. Rae never dreamt going out for a jog could lead to such adventure, as she falls through the prehistoric portal into a story of ancient prophecy, accidental magic, and monarchical madness.
Saved from the start by the Golden Son, she is stunned by his beauty. Yet already he hides a secret, too shameful to admit. And as the threat of death presses upon them, she has a few surprises of her own in store, as he learns she is his fate in more ways than he could imagine.
In an enchanted world, a race against time to save a long-forgotten people is coming to its end. And as the Wise Ones brace for extermination, one question remains unanswered: WHO IS THE VISITOR? What strange twist of fate spat her forth at this historic moment? Could she be the one for whom the wizard waits? Will she lead the elves to victory, or does her destiny lie elsewhere?
Slip through the Gate of Galithonel and join one woman’s journey of subterfuge and self-discovery as she finds her gifts for a world in crisis and discovers the secrets of a wondrous race: energy masters, gifted healers, devoted lovers…Immortal Elves.

I loved this book so much. I was truly hooked immediately because I connected with the characters deeply. I wish they all existed in real life because I would just love to hang out with them!!! I recommend this book to everyone. You will be on an adventure till the end of the book and then excited to read the sequel!!
Fabulous Fantasy Novel! February 10, 2007
Phyllis Silverberg (Laguna Hills, CA)
It is hard to put this book down once you start reading it! I'm actually reading it through for the second time, and I STILL can't wait to read what happens next. The story is well crafted, the characters are people I want to know (well, except for the evil King), and I definitely want to live in the Elven Realm. In the meantime, I want the sequel!
Definetly worth reading again and again! November 16, 2006
K. K. Olsen (Sebastopol, CA United States)
A truly epic tale that made a lasting impression on me. I identified with the disillusionment with modern industrial culture that the main character, Earth woman Kassanderae, experienced. The beautiful elven race resonated strongly with my values of reverence for the earth and all beings, and their way of compassionate stewardship for life. The heroic journey of Kassanderae brought out my own inner hero and I found myself ready to step out courageously into the world, facing whatever may come, all for the greater good. This book is full of insight on many levels and sure to inspire anyone who reads it. In the past I haven't "found the time" to read books. Now I find myself eagerly awaiting the next book in this series!
Couldn't put it down October 11, 2006

Reading this book is like going and seeing a movie with a really good story. You know -- the kind where you're so entertained you never stop to wonder how it's going to end. I like the suspense of a woman in a foreign place addressing un-heard of challenges. And the characters are interesting and complex. The heroine, Rae, is a dynamic woman with a lot goin' on. Plus, she's HOT! And the elves are cool, gentle warriors. I found the Gate of Galithonel an exciting, page-turner with intrigue, mystery, and suspense. I couldn't put it down.
