Description
The enchanted land of Coraira has died, preventing entry for twins Asher and Ariana Caine. They are now trapped alone in the realm of ice and snow.
Meanwhile, the wise Ancients have each been stolen by a mysterious cloud. Vengeful Mother Earth has finally decided to fight back against the humans who, under the power of a dark curse, have been abusing her for centuries.
Will the Caine twins make it out of the ice realm alive? Will the heirs of Elora and Larque figure out how to lift the curse? And what will happen if Mother Earth wins?
A Note From the Publisher
Advance Praise
“I read Elora of Stone without putting it down. The ‘Legend of Rhyme’ depicts a wondrous world populated with fairies and ogres, good witches and bad, and delightful protagonists.” —Paulette Bourgeois, author of the “Franklin the Turtle” series, Order of Canada winner
“Blood and Stars will not disappoint readers with a penchant for action-packed, plot-driven novels... The short chapters in this novel allow the storyline to build at an accessible pace both for parents who wish to read aloud and for independent readers at the middle-grade level... Subtlety makes way for deep conversation between parent and child.” —Atlantic Books Today
“[Elora of Stone] is an excellent way to introduce fantasy/adventure to beginning readers and hook reluctant readers.” —Cat Michaels, author of the “Sweet T Tales”
“[Jaime Lee Mann] captured a little bit of everything that’s been really popular and intriguing for these readers.” —Karen Mair, CBC’s Mainstreet PEI radio show

I’ve read all of the books in the series and have been impressed by them. Ancient Fall is no exception. This is a fitting end to such an enjoyable series. This book is a lot darker than other books in the series and at times I wondered if it was too dark for children. Thankfully, the balance of light and dark is just right. The characters learn various morals and lessons along the way but this never gets preachy or invasive and is effortlessly woven into the storyline. This was a pleasure to read. I can imagine reading Ancient Fall to happy children. I’m sort of sad the series has ended and wonder what the author will come up with next.

Twins are crucial to all the Legend of Rhyme stories, but none more so than this one. All the twins must play their part in saving the worlds from Mother Earth. The Goddess has turned against humans and intends to show them no mercy, after years of suffering abuse at their hands.
This is the final chapter in a seven book series for children. The pulling together of all the threads in the allegory.
It is really important that you have read the previous six books before you read this one, otherwise you won't get the best of the story.
Also, if you read out of sequence, reading this one will spoil the others completely.
I wonder what Jaime Lee Mann will be writing next. I hope that I will be able to read it.
