![]() ![]() The dual storyline, following the female and male characters, accompanies them on a journey of intrigue, danger and discovery. There is plenty of historical background to build the picture of this kingdom, its myths and legends. Set in a mystical world of magic, dragons, special powers and powerful god-like stars, who benevolently (mostly) rule over the lands, it is easy to become immersed into the imagined world. I have a feeling that there will be many of young readers waking up a bit bleary eyed, having read well into the night! There is plenty of lovely description and intrigue to keep the pages turning. Pace is so important to keep all readers engaged, and this one races along, the reader quickly getting drawn in to the adventures of the two main protagonists. The book is ideal for readers aged 8 or 9 and above. This genre may not be my usual reading, but I really enjoyed escaping into this new world, engaging with the young heroine and hero. ![]()
