Title: The Aelf Club – Unity
Author: Stuart Brooke Richardson
Sara DeVere has always felt that she was a little different from the others at her school, but she had no idea just how different she was – and she didn’t know why. She has finally made it into her teens, and as she learns the value of following her inner-voice, it leads her on a quest to find her long forgotten roots. Sara finally discovers what it is that sets her apart from those around her – and she wants to know more!
Meanwhile, there are dark forces brewing in the world of Men, and Sara quickly realizes that it is somehow up to her to use her incredible gifts to help bring an end to the terrible injustice that is now on the rise. Can Sara learn enough about herself in time to save the world? Perhaps the Aelf Club can help…

I originally purchased this book, The Aelf Club-Unity, for my daughter who is a huge fantasy book fan. Because she is under 13, I read the book first to determine if it was suitable for her to read. I initially glanced through portions of the book, but decided to read it from the beginning because I am a pretty fast reader. From the beginning to the end of The Aelf Club, the author, Mr. Richardson does a superb job of tying in archeological and intriguing relevant history to the story line. I also loved the realism of Sara juggling the challenges of life as a teenager. It is a fast paced book, but also has substance that most traditional juvenile books don’t include. I was kept guessing until the final pages. Sara DeVere is our new future heroine. I would not be surprised to see this being entertained as a future movie. Although it does have some of the same underlying mystery and fantasy as books such as Harry Potter; The Lion, Witch, and the Wardrobe; and the Twilight Series, I find that The Aelf Club-Unity is refreshing in that it is also unique in context and in story line; differing from the above stories but within the same genre. Mr. Stuart Brooke Richardson, we are impatiently awaiting the next adventure. My daughter would also love a Sara DeVere t-shirt if available.
