AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'An epic fairytale romance set in a semi-fictional ancient world, containing elements of action, adventure, poetry and comedy. The title has a triple meaning: The central character is a renowned beauty - 'the rose of the world' - while the rose flower features heavily in the plot and it also implies that the world rose up. When Ronwind Drake discovers treasures in a distant paradise, a new golden age seems set to begin. But Ella Tundra will find that all which glitters is not gold as she faces many obstacles in her quest for true love.' (Publication summary)
