If you are looking for a story, or rather a character, with a distinctive voice, this is one of them. Wonderfully snarky and refreshingly direct, the spoilt 39th-century elf certainly doesn’t mince words when he unexpectedly finds himself trapped in the past. The idea of a bratty ‘visitor from the future’ whose biggest worry is suddenly having to go without life’s little luxuries is hilarious, and I found the way the author tells the story highly entertaining.

Fabion is not just an elf prince, he is also a supermodel. As expected he is vain and spends his time with equally spoiled friends, but he also has some concerns about the environment that are a little less expected. And once the wizard Matradorian transports him back to the past to help fix a broken king’s heart, Fabion comes into his own. He may be miserable about the “primitive state” of his new environment, but he also turns out to have a big heart, be very loyal and extremely able to deal with a court full of intrigue and mysterious politics. I loved his attempt to ‘modernize’ the stuffy court officials’ language, and to liven things up.

King Henda is very unwilling to return to the living at first, but quickly succumbs to Fabion’s charms. I liked his willingness to adapt – to a certain extent - and his growing love for Fabion adds a level of emotion and a number of sexy adventures to the book that makes it even more fun.

There are very few books (that I am aware of) in the "comedy" category that are this funny, and yet carry a plot of mystery and intrigue at the same time. Not to mention such an attractive couple of main characters with an incredibly erotic imagination and willingness to indulge themselves. If you’re looking for a book that will make you laugh, combined with a great love story and some very fun observations about human society, you will probably like it as much as I did.

Dialog took some getting used to, but what fun. Really loved it. ( )

At more than 400 pages, I almost skipped this one due to the involvement it would take me to read it… and it would have been a big mistake. Even if fantasy is not exactly my cup of tea, I plenty enjoyed this funny romp tale: Fabion is a XXXIX century elf who makes his living as model; he is uber-hot and in that century elves are a rare breed looked upon by filthy human as odd creatures with an alluring appeal. Modern time is a polluted world, in which evil elves manages all the money, and poor human are living in filth and poverty; everything that is natural is dying and artificial things are substituting the living one. The legends of the elves ancestors are like fairy tales: people still narrate about the powerful Henda, the mighty king, so beautiful and kind, who unfortunately faded away and with him also all the beauty of the world.

Then suddenly Fabion is whisked away in the XVIII century: apparently Fabion is the reincarnation of Henda’s husband, a beautiful elf who died an horrible death, and a crashed Henda decided to follow him in the alterlife: he is now a sleeping beauty waiting for his prince’s kiss. To Fabion the XVIII century is not as bad as you can imagine: he is served and revered like a prince, exactly as he is in his own time. Plus Henda is an hunk of a king, and Fabion has no qualms in being his house-husband… no one can pretend from him to be a warrior like the previous Fabion, and neither an housekeeping; the only think in which Fabion excels is being pretty and sexy, and of course he is able to satisfy Henda’s every desire in the bedroom.

The tale is really funny, light and cute. It’s not really complex, but sincerely nothing is in surplus in the story and all more than 400 pages are right where they were. And so, if you want to try it, buck up and enjoy the long ride, there will be plenty of smiles.
