The Fate of Elysian Review Spotlight

 

Welcome to the tour for The Fate of Elysian by Theresa Sherron! Read on for more details!



The Fate of Elysian is the first book in Theresa Sherron's The Fate of the Empyrean series. Prepare to dive deep into a world that was once familiar, but no longer is. This dystopian fantasy novel is an eye-opening and engaging novel that will keep you coming back for more.

It's Faye's 18th birthday. The time has come for her to make her journey to the City. The place where she is meant to meet her "soul-mate" and lead a life similar to the one that her father and her mother lead. Will her life be full of as much love and happiness as theirs was? While it lasted? Before tragedy struck and left her mother a shell of who she used to be?

All life on Earth was nearly lost when famine and drought struck the world creating shortages and millions of lives lost due to starvation. A new world order arose. One that brought about a change that helped save life. But the life that awaits Faye...is it the one that she wants?

The Fate of Elysian starts off slow, but you just have to be patient as the author works to set the stage utilizing Faye. The author gives readers background on young Faye and the things that she has experienced up to this point. It's a mix of happiness and sadness at what the world has become and then to the point where it is shifting. Of course, her "journey" to the city is rather bizarre, but that's just the beginning. 

As the story gains its footing, it gradually gains ground and becomes more engaging. Faye decides that the life that is "planned out" for her may not be the one that she wants anymore. Why shouldn't she get to choose her own path and who she wishes to be with? This, of course, always leads to trouble, but what fun would a book be without some drama mixed up in it?

This book gives you twists, secrets, and a few surprises here and there. By the time you reach the final page the author has artfully set the stage to leave readers eager for what comes next. 

4 out of 5 stars

The Fate of Elysian

Publication Date: May 2023

Genre: Dystopian Fantasy

Will you live a life that is predestined and controlled from your first breath of air? A life full of darkness, destruction, and pain, where your existence is owed to the survival of humanity.

Faye’s eighteenth birthday turns her life upside down, just like the rest of the teens who walked this planet before her. She must travel to the city; she knows she would never return the same…if she ever returns!

In a futuristic world founded to cope with the effects of a famine that altered the course of humanity, there are certain commandments to follow to live a prosperous life. Faye steps into the city of dreams with several unanswered questions. All she has is a mysterious symbol to find her soulmate, who was predestined at birth. Not knowing who her symbol will light up for, she must trust her judgment – or destiny. Will her judgments be right?

Her rebelliousness leads her to uncover a disturbing truth about the city, which is known as their Elysian. But is it just that? Along with others, Faye is determined to find the missing pieces and bring justice to herself, her family, and her friends. She is fearless; she’s not afraid to challenge those who are in power.

Has her entire life been a lie? Does she want to fight to be with the love of her life or settle with the ‘soulmate’ chosen by the city at the time of her birth?
Faye must decide.
