FOCUS ON WOMEN CHARACTERS.
Minnesota author J. Lynn Else told an Authority Magazine interviewer this week:
Gowing up in the 80s and 90s, while a big fan of sci fi and fantasy, there weren’t a lot of female characters to identify with. The females typically lacked depth, didn’t have a lot of agency, or simply were there as a romantic interest. As I started developing my fantasy trilogy, I wanted to create a cast of female characters who were all different.

Lost Daughters of Avalon (Awakenings) by J. Lynn Else is one of the best fantasy book for teen or adult readers to check out — new and classic tales alike, this story
have everything from fantasy to mythical creatures, fantastical worlds to magic that lives in our own reality.
Towards the end, I found some of the most beautiful words of love I've read in a while, so much that I had to stop

I was taken in – hook, line, and sinker – from the opening to the last sentence of this story.
As a lover of magical and fantasy fiction, the appeal of this story is immediate. It is not so much a modernization of the King Arthur tales, but a continuation of the story. The world of Avalon has been alive and well through the centuries, and the author melds the modern world of the four young women into the tales of knights and wizards with an ease that makes it feel not only plausible, but natural as well.
