520 _a"Soldiers of the Queen" by Harold Avery is a historical novel likely written in the late 19th century. The story centers on the lives of young children, particularly highlighting the experiences of Valentine Fenleigh, his sisters, and their cousin Jack Fenleigh as they navigate childhood adventures, games, and family relationships against a backdrop of military themes and expectations of becoming soldiers. The opening of the book introduces the reader to a playful scene where Valentine and his sisters engage in mock battles with toy soldiers, reflecting a blend of innocence and preparation for future conflicts. The children are depicted in a cozy familial setting, under the nurturing watch of their Aunt Mabel, affectionately known as Queen Mab. As the narrative unfolds, it explores the dynamics between the children, setting the stage for Jack's character development and the conflicts that arise as they transition from the joyful innocence of childhood to the more serious ramifications of adulthood and familial tensions. The reader is left with a sense of whimsical adventure, tempered by hints of deeper emotional undertones and foreshadowing of future conflicts, particularly concerning Jack's character.
