Suggested Trilogy:

Firstborn Elven Nations Trilogy Volume 1  By Paul B. Thompson & Tonya R.Carter

Back Cover Text:
Silvanos, the august founder of the united elven nation known as Silvanesti, is dead and buried in a crystal tomb.  The leadership of the clans and households has fallen to his son, Sithel, who is himself father of twin sons.  The princes Sithas and Kith-Kanan represent emerging factions among these elves:  Kith-Kanan is the leader of the Wildrunners, a group of elves that stirs tension by forging contacts and trade with the humans of Ergoth; Sithas closely allies himself with the court in the elven capital.  The rivalry between kin climaxes with their father's mysterious death.  When Kith-Kanan is vaguely implicated, Sithas, the firstborn twin, is enthroned. 

Review:
A very interesting story about Kith-Kanan and elven society and politics.  I learned much about the situation between the Silvanesti, the Kagonesti, and the humans. There's not much in the way of battles in this book, but it is good writing and kept me focused.  I did notice a small discontinuity where Huma is mentioned even though it was still long before he was born.  But if you disregard that then you'll probably enjoy the book.
Rating: 7/10.
