Tolkien enferma de fiebre quintana. Las condiciones de debilidad extrema en las que se encuentra hacen que sea evacuado al hospital número uno de la Cruz Roja, ubicado en el Casino de Le Touquet-Paris-Plage. Allí es atendido por la enfermera voluntaria Gala Eliard, una fascinante aristócrata que huye de un pasado tormentoso y a la que le impulsa la necesidad de salvar la vida de al menos un solo hombre. El breve encuentro entre ambos, que tiene lugar durante tan solo ocho días, cambiará para siempre el mundo creativo del escritor y encenderá la chispa que inspirará la creación de uno de sus personajes más poderosos, la elfa Galadriel, y del que será uno de los mayores fenómenos literarios del siglo XX.

Tolkien, es su primera novela. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The story of the woman who inspired one of J. R. R. Tolkien's most famous characters in The Lord of the Rings the elf Galadriel.
No Tolkien fan can miss this novel.
On the 50th anniversary of J. R. R. Tolkien's passing, Alicia García-Herrera has written an exciting novel that reveals the origin of one of the greatest literary phenomena of the twentieth century: The Lord of the Rings.
A beautiful story of mercy, redemption, and love that will last long after death.
Front at the Somme, October 1916. After Regina Trench was attacked, signal officer J. R. R. Tolkien falls ill with quintan fever. Due to his extreme weakness, he is evacuated to hospital number one of the Red Cross, at the Le Touquet-Paris-Plage Casino. There he is cared for by nurse Gala Eliard, a fascinating aristocrat running from a troubled past, driven by the need to save the life of at least one man. Their brief encounter, which lasts only eight days, would forever change the author's creative world and spark his inspiration to create one of the most powerful characters, the elf Galadriel, in what would become one of the greatest literary phenomena of the twentieth century. Alicia García-Herrera has a masters degree and a doctorate by the Universitat de València, and has devoted her work mostly to social and human sciences research. She collaborates in the culture section of La Vanguardia journal and its supplement, Revista de Letras.

She has written two law essays and the informational work That Was Not in My Greek Mythology Book (Almuzara, 2021). The White Lady (Plaza & Janés, 2023), about writer J. R. R. Tolkien, is her first novel.

Liked it
Format: Kindle
I liked the worlds and the characters. The prophesy is confusing in that I would think, since all worlds ore on a path to destruction, the angels would want their world to be saved. I am sure there is more evil that will be revealed as the series proceeds. I dislike a prolonged “poor little me” trope and the main character has moved past that, thankfully, and began to show a fierce attitude as the novel progressed. The last portion of the novel had some great action. It’s worth reading, just be patient with a slow start.

Great start
Format: Kindle
I loved this book! It's funny but still deals with tough themes, like chronic illness, a serial killer on the loose, and a dash of self-harm. The guys are interesting and distinct, we don't know too much about them yet. It does end on a really terrible cliffhanger but on the bright side the next book is out and I believe the series is complete. I have enjoyed both of these authors separately and this is a great team up!

Fudge!
Format: Kindle
Titles aren’t my strong suit. Sorry not sorry.
That ending has me completely frustrated book two isn’t out yet. Just throwing that out there.
First thing first, this is a high school book where the lead is under 18. Yea yea she’s about month from being an adult, but I can’t say I would’ve even opened the file if I’d realized. It’s not a smut fest or anything, but there is sexual tension as each party figures out their emotions.
That being said, it’s a good book. There are some troubling parts, like how the supes come into their powers at 13, but most of those are dealt with in a way that makes sense. Kian is the exception. His whole arc pisses me off, especially since no one stepped in. Reflecting back on real world situations, ten or so years ago, I can see it happening, but it still makes me sick. Which, I’m sure was the whole damn point.
For the most part, Courting Darkness is a fun read. I found myself laughing along with most of the set up. By the time it started getting serious, I’d grown to like the characters enough it held an impact.
I’ll be adding book two to my list for when it comes out.

Intriguing
Format: Kindle
An intriguing story that played out slowly while introducing some unique characters. The story became quite fascinating to read as these same characters provided startling revelations to their lives. As their relationships evolve, more drama and mystery is revealed adding to my fascination. I can’t wait to read more.

Outstanding Story!!!!!!!
Format: Kindle
Oh I loved this story. Sera is such an amazing, fun character. She has so much fire inside of herself. She has humor that makes you laugh with her sassy comments. The guys are fantastic. I don’t feel as if we really have gotten to know who and what they are but they are such a mix of fae. The story is extremely well written and developed. It had me pulled in and didn’t let go. There was so much action, drama, and suspense. Then we get to the ending and goodness there is so much going on. This ending was a major cliffhanger and I absolutely can’t wait to see what happens next.
