Phewee, this book is not an easy read - as in, it tackles tough topics such as homeless orphans fighting to stay safe, and suicide. However, it is totally worth it if these aren't triggers for you.
The story slowly builds from Rachael's challenging life on the streets through to learning whom to trust. Once it reaches its peak, the pace picks up to a thrilling level. A rollercoaster through a fantasy world.
Like all good books of this genre, there is a prophecy, goodies, baddies, magick and peril aplenty.
How on Earth is this prophecy ever to come to fruition? The odds are stacked against them and success seems highly unlikely. Especially with a reluctant heroine.
There are some terrific, rounded characters in this well-written book. I stuck with them every step of the way, and may even have held my breath in places. Set in a medieval-feely land, we are treated to sights and smells which enhance this tale. There is definitely depth here.
If you love fantasy, you will want to read this!
