Although we all grew up, we remain children in our hearts. We want to believe in a fairy tale, miracles, princesses and princes on a white horse. And also the fact that good always conquers evil, wherever fate brings the main character. Therefore, books with a fairy tale plot, with worlds in which everything is possible, are perceived as a balm for the soul, as a rest from a difficult and such an ordinary life.
In modern literature, few authors create quality works in the fantasy genre. It is very difficult to combine an exciting plot, a good syllable, humor and storytelling logic. But there are exceptions, and one of them is the writer Julia Trunina.

Reviews
The author writes in the style of fantasy. The main character of the books is a girl named Illia Lackaya, who has the abilities of a strong magician. She always gets into various difficult situations, but courageously copes with them in order to immediately fall into the next insidious trap.
Julia Trunina has a very rich narrative. Having started reading, from the first pages you are immersed in the intricacies of kinship and monarchical ties. However, there are certain inconveniences in this: the more you read, the more such an overload of sentences begins to strain. Sometimes historical references are so ornate that you are already lost in the relatives of one of the heroes and in his past exploits. The narration is conducted either on behalf of the main character, then in the third person, and from this you get lost.
As in any fantasy, the plot is full of elves, demons, powerful magicians and other fairy-tale characters. But they are expressed as our contemporaries - with modern words and phrases.
Reviews about Julia’s books are generally good. Fans of fantasy say that the author writes novels "about girls for girls", therefore, thanks to the young heroine of the work, you can try on all the wonders for yourself and even more worry about Illia Latskaya, a whacky almighty sorceress.
Unfortunately, there is a very sad moment in this whole story with elves and magicians. The first books of Julia were published in 2010 and 2011. To be continued a little later, but new chapters appeared very slowly, several a year. At the moment, the author of books has stopped writing, and readers are left without an interesting, “tasty” reading. Fans of the books of Yulia Trunina are looking forward to continuing, but so far the writer has taken a break in her work.
