I enjoy realistic and teachable fiction books. The added bonus of fantasy is what sold me on adding this book to my TBR. Great job with the review.

Sadly, after reading the sample, I realized I have already read this book when it was titled The Queen of Xana.

This book sounds like an interesting mix of medieval fantasy, philosophical fiction, and erotic fiction; this unique book is sure to catch the eye of those that enjoy these genres!

I absolutely love historical fiction and especially when they are set in the medieval era! Agatha sounds like a classy lady since she can be both tough and compassionate. I'm curious to find out was she a commoner that became queen, or was she already of royal lineage! I am definitely adding this one to my want-to-read shelf! Thank you for the great review!

I have contradicting feelings about this book. On the one hand it is totally my favorite genre and in description storyline sounds quite appealing. But one the other average reviewer rating is low, also cover is made with such low quality that I can't find myself to believe that content is indeed very well written. Undecided, so will put on shelf for some further reference.

I appreciate the mix of medieval fantasy and the personal nature of Agatha‘s story. The cover is a bit cheesy but it still looks interesting. Congratulations on book of the day!

It is rare to find a fantasy book with believable settings and realistic plots. I am glad that this one passes both tests and even entails lessons leaders could learn. Thanks for the informative review. I look forward to reading it.

I love stories with a female lead. I also like medieval stories. I am curious how she lead during those times having to reform the system and revamp her government. Thanks for your review.

I love the cover, showing a strong woman. I think I may enjoy this book, with the story of someone trying to make a positive change using wisdom and compassion.

The book is fantastic with a great storyline. It had a realistic plot, and every activity was similar to the medieval way of life, which was the setting of the story. Overall this is an intriguing read.
The review is superb.
Congratulations on Botd

This isn't my area of interest so I'll be skipping it. But congratulations to Mr. Pilcher on his achievement for receiving BOTD honors. I wish him well in finding an appreciative audience.

The land of Xana looks a lot like the corrupted states where the healthy families becomes richer and the poor families become poorer. This review made me want to read this book and find more about how to stay strong in a community like this and how to help more. Agatha may be a fictional character, but surely is a living one through this book in this world. Thanks for the great review.

I believe this is an extended version of another book, Queen of Xana. I didn't appreciate the erotic scenes in that one. Agatha's fairy godmother is too naughty for me.

This is an interesting philosophical science fiction fantasy novel highlighting an adult fairy story, class system, and a strong willed female protagonist. The book is temporarily free on Amazon Kindle and has an inciteful OnlineBookClub review. Congrats on the BOTD selection.

Fascinating book...its relevance to modern day governance is quite uncanny since most societies today are bedevilled by a lot of what Agatha fought against....bravo to the master storyteller who took us with him on a journey of medieval discoveries of honour, deception, justice, sensuality and hope
