Estranged

Estranged

By Ethan M. Aldridge

The book Estrange written by Ethan M. Aldridge. I would really recommend this book because the story is very heart-warming and they finally know their true identities. Edmund and the childe exchanged identities when they were only 1 years old. Edmund's parents wanted to be popular so they exchanged Edmund with the childe when they were young. The childe was always the talk of the town while Edmund lives a peaceful life in the humans world. Edmund knows that he is a changeling, and he has always kept it as a secret. Until one day, Edmund's real parents got in trouble and his aunt took over the kingdom. The childe didn't know what to do, so he set off to find Edmund and decided to tell him about what happened to his real parents. Edmund told the childe that he didn't really cared about his real parents and that they never cared about him and they abandoned him. But Edmund had a older sister that was supposed to be the childe's sister, Alexis. She found out that there was two boys that both looked like her younger brother. So she followed them to the other world. When Alexis went to the other world, she started to cause trouble and got Edmund's and the childe's attention. Edmund and the childe quickly dragged Alexis out of the trouble and explained everything to her. Alexis was really surprised that she has two brothers, except the one that has always been beside him was the changeling. The childe has a golem that has to stay beside him for all times, he protects the childe from any danger. Edmund's real aunt is trying to hunt him down because he is the only one that can take the throne away from her. She ordered her followers to look for him and one of them found Edmund and started to chase after him for a long time. Every time Edmund escapes away from his aunt's follower, it appears suddenly again. But one time they ran into a tunnel and found a cage with a mouse in it, the childe decided to save the poor mouse that has been kept in the cage for a long time. The mouse lead them to a witch that was very sad and thought that they were Edmund's aunt's followers and tried to kill them. But luckily the mouse was fast enough to run all the way to the bracelet that the witch has been wearing. Then suddenly the mouse turned into a human. When the witch saw that and she was very happy because the man that just turned from a mouse into a man was her love. She apologized to them and said that she thought they were Edmund 's aunt;s followers. The witch told them the reason why she hated the queen that mch. It's because the queen took her love to experience the new thing that she had invented, which can turn people into mouse. The witch gave Alexis a knife so that she can protect herself. And she gave Edmund I ring that can block the magics that the queen tries to spell on him. When they arrived at the castle back door, they saw a dragon that was supposed to look after the door and not let anyone get in. They had a plan and decided to separate themselves into two groups so that one of the groups can distract the dragon while another group sneaks into the back door of the castle. The golem that had to follow the childe and protect him from any danger didn't want all those to happen, he thinks that it would be pretty hard to defeat the queen. The childe ordered the golem to go with Edmund and protect him. The golem had to melt the mark on his shoulder before he left the childe because that mark means that the golem has to follow the childe and protect him. But without that mark, the golem can leave the childe. The golem was really royalty to the childe, and he was the only friend of the childe before all those things happened. The golem and Edmund went into the castle and tried to find Edmund's aunt. When they finally found her and told her to retreat and hand out the throne, she used her magic and tried to kill Edmund but the golem saved him but got himself melted. Just when Edmund's aunt was about to kill Edmund, the childe and Alexis finally came and defeated the evil queen. After that, Edmund told the childe that his name was Edmund but he doesn't know his name. But someone told him that his name was Cinder before he was changed with Edmund. So Cinder decided to stay where he belonged and let Edmund got back with his real family. Alexis was really sad when she had to leave her brother that she had spent years with but Cinder promised that he would go visit them. Alexis thought that it was pretty cool to have a brother that is a king. Alexis and Edmund returned to the human world and Alexis taught Edmund about everything he should know about the human world.
