If you love strong and capable female leads who are totally relatable with realistic thoughts towards love and attraction (while also living in a world of magical abilities, royal treachery and impending war) then you will absolutely LOVE this book! I read this in less than 6 hours because I could not tear myself away from Britta’s story as she tries to find the truth behind her father’s murder, her own identity, her family secrets and what the future holds for her and the man she loves. All while her Kingdom rests on the brink of war with the neighboring lands of Shaerdan, harboring the magical Channelers banned for dark magic. No big deal.
Britta is one of my favorite heroine’s to date: she’s strong, she’s independent, she’s quick-witted, she is fierce, and she is so confused about how she feels about her best friend, Cohen! It was so refreshing reading this story through Britta’s eyes because her inner dialogue about how Cohen makes her feel was so realistic! If you’ve ever wondered what a guy means when he says something (or doesn’t say something) or second guessed a glance, a brush of a hand, or even said things you just really wish you didn’t say out loud, you will totally identify with Britta. It’s pretty hard to impress me when it comes to romantic story lines because so many times the same set up is used (which makes sense, I mean, you can only fall in love so many ways I suppose) so to read about a girl who can be all sorts of confident in herself and her ability to survive but still question what he means when he says “oh, did you court anyone while I was away” was honestly one of my favorite aspects of this book.
Summerill wrote this dialogue brilliantly, as it never took away from the pace of the story or plot and never once felt forced. I sometimes find that these things can feel out of place ( I mean, homegirl is looking for a murderer in a magical land and can’t stop thinking about that time he looked at her a little too long) but I NEVER felt that way reading this book (despite what that sarcastic comment above may suggest). Her thoughts were honest, real and totally fitting to her character and helped us to bond with Britta in a way that I haven’t bonded with a lead heroine in a while.
Summerill also does a fantastic job building a world rich with royal restrictions, magical mystery and contrasting scenery. Malam and it’s rocky, icy terrain made the lush forests of Shaerdan seem that much more magical when our characters travel there for answers. The mystery behind the murder of her father, her own abilities, and events that transpire right before Cohen leaves, are revealed in an excellent pace that never left me bored while reading about journeying through the woods for days on end. There is action, there is slow burn, frustratingly aching romance, and there is tender hearted moments with Etna that add to the brilliance in Summerill’s writing.
I was truly captivated and blow away by this novel and I am anxiously awaiting the sequel after the plot twist revealed at the end of this book. This is a must read for anyone who loves fantasy, romance, and magical worlds you can immerse yourself into.
Also -- it's a GORGEOUS book that I love photographing. You can see more photos like this on my instagram: rheya_reads
