The four seasons live inside us all.
Spring is the season of freedom. A time to revel in the joy of youth, to dodge responsibility and bask in the endless potential and limitless possibilities that lay before us.

The day has finally arrived. After years of scheming, Athel is finally ready to sneak away from her island to join the federal navy. But before her feet hit the deck her mother arrives with the worst condition possible. She can only leave if she takes her new fiancé with her.

Alder is everything she didn't want in a house-husband. Short and pale, and infuriatingly formal, his presence sabotages every chance she gets to wallow in her new found freedom. And yet, he seems to understand her in a way no one else ever has. While having a personal chef who knows what you want before you want it is certainly flattering, how could she ever accept someone who is so different from what she imagined she wanted in a man?

The world they explore together is vast and magical, just filled with people waiting to be offended. In giant airships the federal navy patrols the skies above the wild acidic seas. Each island is home to a different race, each of whom specialize in their own unique kind of magic.

But after centuries of peace, the world is changing, and when Athel's island mysteriously withdraws itself from the League, she becomes the target of kidnappers, pirates, and a shape-shifting assassin. Even the crew of her own ship are tempted by the price on her head.

As the world of Aetria teeters on the brink of war, it is going to take a lot more than luck to get her and her bony fiancé out of this one.

Extra Material:
After you read the book, make sure to enjoy the special extras on the Isle Of Wysteria website. You'll find Bloopers and Outtakes, Cast and Crew Interviews and Commentary, and the Director's Cut with bonus chapters. You can even leave your own questions for the characters to answer.

5,0 su 5 stelle Isle of Wysteria: Make Like a Tree and Leaf
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 23 gennaio 2013

I feel so lucky lately. . .I have had such a great run on amazing books. I have to admit though that I really didn't think I would like this one, and only downloaded it because I like the title. . .Make Like a Tree and Leaf, ha!

Athel wants nothing more then to free herself from the constraints of being a princess and see the world. She joins with a Navel fleet but before she can make her escape the Queen, better know as her mother, shows up with her new husband Alder. He is everything she never wanted in a man, and she lets him know. Together they will have amazing adventures on the Dreadnaught and its very unique crew.

I feel like I have been repeating myself a lot in my last few reviews, but it goes to say that once again I have found a book that is like nothing I have ever come across. Everything about it is unique, sure there is magic just never in a way I have read before. It was so weirdly amusing, that seems like the best way I can describe it, and I would like to say I'm very happy that it wasn't written about sparky vampires. . .I've had enough of that to last a life time.

With all the different races of people I thought it would be hard to keep track of everything, but it was surprisingly easy to know who did what and all. Each and everything character was amazing, they all had their own quirky personalities and everyone fit in with each other great.

One of the first things I did was check to see if the next book was out. Not because it left off in a cliffhanger, because it didn't, but because I really wanted to keep reading about everyone. I'm happy to add Aaron Yeager to my list of authors I keep a eye out for new works.

Would I recommend this book? Oh yeah, and I can't wait to find out what will happen next!

5,0 su 5 stelle Fantasy adventuring at its best
Recensito in Australia il 20 settembre 2016

Rare are the times when a book has me chuckling openly, and rarer still are those which have me experience a wide spectrum of emotions. Isle of Wysteria is a fantastic fantasy adventure and filled to the brim with quirky and atypical characters.

I have immensely enjoyed the imaginings of Aaron Lee Yeager and this novel. There is a system of magic, seemingly tied to races, and a whole world of civilizations to experience. Each of those races are different, and thus, contrasting rules and laws apply, enabling the world to seem that much more lively. In fact, many of these differences are explored and remarked upon, often it complete jest by our intrepid heroes.

It's incredibly hard to find a author able to piece together so many elements coherently and admittedly, there are sections of the novel which suffer from this. Thankfully however, long winded descriptions does not seem to be the focus on this novel. In any case, the book's crowning triumph for me lies in it's characters. And very appropriately, the book focuses much of its attention on the colorful cast of the Dreadnaught. In an impressive feat of character juggling, Aaron Lee Yeager manages to personalize each and every crew member. No two are alike, and everyone seems to fill a role, even if its not immediately evident. I couldn't help but laugh at some of the absurd scenarios which arise from their banter, and then just as quickly switch to empathize with a changing situation.

Isle of Wysteria gets five stars from me. The novel is of a sufficient length to feel not too short, but not so long that it turns into an onerous chore to read. The pacing is good, with sufficient time between action and downtime to balance the excitement and developments. There are a number of surprises as the plot ventures off into unknown seas which may not seem entirely relevant at first. There are also outcomes I could see coming a mile away, yet I enjoyed everything nonetheless. I enjoyed this novel a great deal and can't wait to read more.

4,0 su 5 stelle Fun, Action-Filled Science Fantasy

This book is also known by the title "Make Like a Tree and Leaf," in case you're wondering. I think I got this book for free, but I can't really remember anymore.

A lot happens in this books, so I had to skim it again after I'd finished. The story is kind of odd, but it's my kind of odd, and it was fun. I guess you could call it science fantasy for its mix of magic and high-tech stuff.

A princess leaves home to join the Navy because she wants to be free from her mother. Her mother lets her go but sticks her with a fiance of sorts. He's a nice guy, but the princess treats him poorly at first. Also joining her is a fugitive from her family's arch enemy. These three join a crew on a Navy airship that flies from island to island on a world covered with oceans of boiling acid. First they have to rescue their captain from pirates ... Well, it just stays strange and crazy.

There is quirky, goofy humor throughout. Sometimes whole scenes or dialogue sequences are there just to set up a pun. The characters are weird and their situations are convoluted and the action is constant.

There was a lot (A LOT) of editing errors, mostly in punctuation, especially with missing or misplaced quote marks. I have an earlier edition, so maybe it's been fixed a bit since then. I will let myself believe that.

5,0 su 5 stelle Unexpectedly Enjoyable
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 17 settembre 2014

Athel is a princess of Wysteria, a mystical island of Treesingers. Unhappy with her destiny, to follow in her mother's footsteps and be the next queen, she joins the Navy and ventures out into the world. But this is unlike any Navy you have ever experienced. The ships sail in the air, always avoiding the seas which are acidic and seem to have a life of their own, able to reach up, grab, and devour any who venture too closely. And Athel is assigned to the Dreadnaught - a ship unlike any other in the Navy.

The characters who serve on the Dreadnaught are quite entertaining, with their vastly different personalities and interactions. I often had a smile on my face as I read. The ending was quite unexpected but satisfying.

I suppose it shows my compassionate nature that I thought Athel was just TOO mean to Alder! And Alder was always described as thin, pasty, and not attractive. Surely there could have been some cuteness included somewhere? But, that's just me...

There were also some places in the plot that seemed a bit choppy and could use some better transitioning. This was quite a long book with a fairly complex plot that held my interest and even brought me to tears once or twice!

I enjoyed this very original tale and am about to get the second book in the series. Read this - you won't regret it!

P.S. I first heard of this book from Missionary Mommas!

5,0 su 5 stelle Adventure Fantasy: airships, pirates, magic - oh my!
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 10 gennaio 2013

Aaron Lee Yeager’s first published novel is full of adventure, magic, pirates, and laughter. Yeager knows his genre and how to elicit a laugh from his audience making this book a fun read for fantasy lovers both young and old alike.

Athel, like many young women, has an obsession with books, a crush on a cute boy, and is rebelling against her mother, who just happens to be the queen. Also, Athel can hear and command plants, but so can all the other women on the Isle of Wysteria. Coming of age she joins the navy (a fleet of flying airships) to flee her self-perceived cage and see the world. To her dismay she is joined by two very unwelcomed shipmates; a mortal enemy if she actually cared about politics, and a would be husband if her mother had her way. Together, the three of them join the eccentric crew of the Dreadnaught and from there great adventures ensue.

This is one of those books I had a hard time putting down, I was reading whenever and wherever I could because I was so engrossed in the storyline. Yeager has well developed characters that are engaging and delightful. The book is set-up for a sequel and I’m eager to follow the crew of the Dreadnaught on more exciting adventures.
