The Lost Kingdom | Stephanie Beerden
(The Elements Series
#1)
Expected May 28th 2014
A Prophecy made long ago, announced the arrival of the new Ladies of
Elements.
And now almost a millennia later, it finally came true …
All her life Arima thought she knew who and what she was. That is until the
day of her sixteenth birthday came and her world is turned upside down, when
she’s told she’s not a White Witch but Lady Spirit. And that she is the one that
has been foretold, will unite the Five Ladies of Elements once again and save
Ilendia and the Other Lands from Ahriman, the Demon King.
At first Arima refuses to accept her new fate, but when Shanums come and
destroy her village and kill her loved ones, she has no choice but to flee and
fall right into the destiny she never wanted.
As she grudgingly starts her journey into the unknown, she is accompanied by
her unicorn familiar Sirrim, Blythe, a Vampire with a dark past and Myrddin, a
mysterious Ljosalfar.
And the longer her journey lasts, the more Arima begins to realise that she
can’t escape her own destiny and she must learn to control her powers and learn
to be a Lady for the sake of the Sisters she doesn’t know and the people of
Ilendia and the Other Lands.
However, things get more complicated when Arima comes into the possession of
a key. Her instincts compel her to go towards danger when she discovers that the
key she holds, can unlock the legendary kingdom of Eléssima, the home of the
Ladies of Elements.
She will have to make the choice to follow her instincts …
…or stay on the path that has been laid out for her.
About the Author
Stephanie Beerden was born on Friday the 13th (no joke, she really was) in
a small city called Genk and has always been fascinated with the occult, magic
and books. Her childhood and teen years were filled with reading lots and lots
of books and imagining what life would be like as a Vampire. Until one day
she decided that she wanted to try her hand at writing her own books and that
was the beginning of her writing adventure.
Her first book is a YA
Fantasy called De Elementen – Het Verloren Koninkrijk and after many, many
trials and tribulations, one small Dutch Publisher, named Jaylen Books decided
“Hey, let’s give this girl a shot”. Her second book De Elementen – Archandir has
recently been published by same publisher and she couldn’t be happier about
that.
Stephanie hopes to keep writing as long as she can and already has
several writing projects in the works for the future.
