Synopsis
 
Twelve-year-old Donovan and his best friend Akenji are on the riverbank in their small fishing village near the Wood Elven Forest, dreaming about their future, when Boric's Barbarians invade. The orphaned boys are kidnapped and face a life of slavery until an Elven commander, Alayna, and her Elven Rangers intervene. The brave and good-hearted Alayna defies orders to kill the human children. She instead raises and trains them in archery and sword tactics to be scouts for the Wood Elves. Under the nurturance of Alayna, the boys learn that the Wood Elves are not the fierce creatures they had been taught to fear. Adventure and romance are intertwined when the skilled young man, Donovan, to avenge a brutal act of wrongdoing, risks his life to rescue the Elven Princess Brandela.

Embarking on a dangerous trek, each displays the loyalty, courage, and heroism praiseworthy of future generations. World of Ryyah: Birth of the Half Elves is the first book in the six-part epic, The Elven Age Saga.
