A Skeptic,
By Carol Rayburn (Tennessee) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Song of Turand: Legends from Turand: Opening Aria (Paperback)
I was skeptical about my enjoyment of reading this book. I'm not in to mystical, spiritual, visions or happenings and thought this book would be so unrealistic and far out that I would probably not really like it. I WAS WRONG! Within the first couple of pages I was there right along side the leading female character. I found I would often change sides depending upon what was transpiring at the time. I would come to side with almost each and every character understanding their plights and their reasonings. Interesting is not a strong enough description when reading this book...captivating is. I was brought in right from the beginning and honestly hated to put it down. The author has a phenomenal imagination and to think, it was all dreamt--the characters, their names, the situations, the outcome, etc. And there's more to come. She has used all the spectrums of love that I could think of. The ultimate being loving someone so much you sacrifice for their freedom. She has a knack for putting all the types of love into perspective shown by the characters and their pursuits. She shows us that things really are not what they seem sometimes. We need more information before arriving at conclusions. We can change; we can grow; we can live with happiness as the outcome if we have faith and we love those around us as we love ourselves. It's okay to doubt; it's okay to stray a bit; it's imperative to forgive and to, therefore, ask for forgiveness. Unfortunately, I was only allowed to rate this book with five stars. If more stars were offered, I would have used them. I had to stop many times for reflection of a situation or to reread some of the previous paragraphs again so I could fully understand the implications that were being demonstrated through this remarkable writing. I am a candidate for the next adventure of this author no matter what the subject matter. Simply put, it is good reading.

The Song Of Turand,
By Philippa Ede (Hastings, East Sussex, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Song of Turand: Legends from Turand: Opening Aria (Paperback)
This is the beautiful love story of two people brought together by very unusual circumstances, but in spite of intrigue, treachery and civil war going on around them, their love, once discovered, never wavers. Enhancing this are the ingredients of mysticism and spirituality.This is a book with the setting so vividly described, one feels part of it and wants to hurry to the end to see what happens and having done so feels at a loss because there is no more. It is a story to read over and over again while waitingfor the sequel.

Pim from Lisbon, reviewing this book Song of Turand,
By albertina monteiro "Pim" (Portugal) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Song of Turand: Legends from Turand: Opening Aria (Paperback)
I have read this book three times. In each time, that I have picked this book, I could not stop, and I had to read the full book in one go. Why? Because the author, is very good. I shall say, that in the characters and personalities of each one of the different aspects of one, this author writes with an intense passion and love, for faith, for a better world, and above all what should be to humanity, the Love of A man for a Woman, and the Love of a Woman for a Man. I must recognize and I wish that this book would be translated to more languages, to allow all the people of the world to read, this fascinating Song of Turand, which is not only a Song of faith and Love. It goes beyond human imagination, and it goes direct into your soul. And this author, Sandra Valencia, made me read this same book three times, by its humanity, by its paths, by Love. How strange is the world, not to recognize that human love is so precious to one's soul, as the food, or the water one has to drink to survive. Our soul and our heart and our body, do need so much this Love, so rare these days. To the ones that God do bless, with such a kind of Love, I am sure, that this book worths the kindness and the appreciation of one, that loves Literature. To the strength of this Author, to the prespective of facts and how to bring them to us, makes this Book a Unique one. One, that one must never forget, because, Love exists and faith too. The power of Love, is there, so, do grab it and hold in the palms of your hands, because, one who possess this book, for sure, possess Love, and friendship. Because Love, is more than Love is also, the apprentiship of Friendship and the values of the world. I thank to the Author, for bringing to public such a beautiful book. Thank you Sandra Valencia, for the Song of Turand.
