Book Shelf: Protector of the Chosen (Mother of the Chosen #2) by Janeal Falor

Adriella finally has her child in her arms, but not under the circumstances she hoped for. Caring for a newborn is difficult anyway, but with her wrists and ankles shackled, it's nearly impossible.

She's also been ripped from her husband and friends, and has no idea if they're still alive. Regardless, she must fight for herself and her child. Like her, the other women and children who are part of the same prison train will do anything to keep their families safe. Including sell out their fellow prisoners.

The High King still searches for the one destined to kill him. With everyone around her looking for the chosen, Adriella and her baby's chances of survival grow slimmer every day.

Review: 

Protector of the Chosen is the second novel in Janeal Falor's Mother of the Chosen series and picks up where the first novel left off, once again drawing readers into a world of danger and magic. 

Adriella finally has her baby right where she wants her; in her arms, but the circumstances surrounding this aren't exactly how Adriella planned. Shortly after her daughters birth, Adriella found herself captured, shackled and chained to other imprisoned women and children. Caring for a newborn is hard enough, but these circumstances make it near impossible. Adriella's best hope is to escape, but with the lives of her husband and her friends uncertain, Adriella must find the strength to do it herself. Protecting her child is the most important thing, but with the High King determined to find the chosen child, Adriella and her baby's chances of survival are far from secure. 

After the thrilling ending of Mother of the Chosen, I was excited to once more join Adriella, Richart and their friends in their quest to protect Adriella's baby. Protector of the Chosen picks up right where Mother of the Chosen concluded with Adriella a prisoner of the zasin soldiers. 

Protector of the Chosen was a fast paced novel with a packed storyline that sees our beloved characters facing a new band of dangers as they fight to keep Adriella's daughter from the hands of the High King who will stop at nothing to kill the destined chosen one and all the children who would potentially be this individual. I have to say, I very much enjoy the storyline Janeal Falor has woven together, with elements of romance, action, family and friendship important themes throughout the story. 

The world within the series has been very intriguing so far and I never know what we're going to discover next. Dragons, elves, orcs, unique magical creatures all weave themselves into the storyline with determined and loving mother Adriella making friends in unexpected places. 

Janeal Falor continues to write Adriella as the strong protagonist who is genuine and kindhearted. Adreilla's sole focus has become protecting her baby but it's also nice to see her want to help those effected by the High King as well. It makes for interesting reading as she looks to help others.

Protector of the Chosen comes to a very satisfying close, but still leaves me excited to see more of the series when Janeal Falor releases the next installment. Deftly written and paced, Protector of the Chosen is another enjoyable read!
