Publisher's summary

In Book One, Protected by the Falcon, Ilona is thrust from her easy and steady life and forced to face the unknown, which prompts her to discover ancient tribal secrets. In Book Two, she obtains unimaginable abilities to protect her sister, who bears the next leader of the clan. She can use her powers for absolute good or absolute evil; the choice is up to her. Ilona's birthright as a healer runs alongside her desires as a woman. She must sort through her own feelings about the men in her life. Travel with Ilona from the time her people were nomads, to the castles of the 14th century, to present day, as she struggles to overcome the obstacles placed in her path.

Chosen by the Sword

I really enjoyed this book. Ilona’s life was turned upside down but with the help of her men and family she prevailed. So many decisions and choices to make for her future and others around her. Love, romance, time travel, history, healing magic are all components of her life.
The narrator did an amazing job bringing the characters to life.

I’ll definitely be checking out more of Erika Szabo books. I have appreciated the chance to listen to them. 5 stars ⭐️

A Brillant Ending

There are so many twists and turns in this book. Ilona, Zoltan and Baylor find themselves in a love triangle. When Ilona makes her choice she discovers the happiness is shirt lived. External forces continue to manipulate Ilona and friends. Ilona must understand and deal with Morana's evilness.
Narrator Jannie Meisburger voiced this book very well. She brought this book to life.
