A new series taking place in Bellonan, a country with shape
shifting and magic. Evie, a poor Cinderella
type of relative lives in the palace of her aunt, the queen. Her cousin, Vasila, her closest friend or is
she? Strength of magic determines so
much in Bellonan and Evie appears to have none. Evie is forced to defend the kingdom that
has denied her existence.
Estep has polished her skills since I read her early Spider
works. She has crafted a kingdom and its
neighbors and populated them with colorful characters. She develops the Evie character and shows
the success of determination and courage.
I was somewhat surprised that rage fueled hatred seemed to be more important
than a stalwart, cool and pragmatic approach to victory.
An interesting book, well written and very entertaining.
This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
