Helpful Score: 5

First in the Banned and the Banished fantasy series in which Elena, a young farm girl in Alasea discovers (with the help of her Uncle Bol) that she is the Wit'ch long prophesied to help the world slip out from under the dark rule of Lord Gul'gotha. She ends up banded together with a bunch of people and creatures of legend, they sworn to protect her and she only longing for the simple farm life she once had. Quite enjoyable and while there are some clichéd plotlines similar to many epic fantasy tales, it's also sufficiently different to keep it interesting for the most part. There's a fair bit of graphic violence and gory creatures and such, so best not for those prone to nightmares. LOL
