Summary: How to combine modern and fantasy realms
Review: When I first started to read this novel I could not belive it was called fantasy. It was our world with a few strange happenings. A horror novel more than fantasy, but after some pages I began to understand. The story put a spell on me and I read all night.
We follow two main charachters that are taken from our modern world and taken into a fantasy realm of the world Eldh, where magic, monsters and runemasters are very much alive and active.
One, the woman (Grace) is taken for a noble-born lady, and the man (Travis) for a commoner. Their purpose here is to help save Eldh. If they fail it could mean the end for Eldh and Earth also.
Although it is a classic good against evil story it is one of the few fantasy novels that succesfully combines "heroes" from our modern world with a world that is fantastic and magical.
