Socks knocked off! I
have read Queen
of Blood, The
Reluctant Queen, The
Queen of Sorrows, The Deepest
Blue and Spark
all by Durst. She never ceases to
impress me but this book really grabbed me by the throat and shook me. Perhaps it is the climate we are currently
living in with lots of depression and fear but this book was a burning light of
hope and redemption. A tough trainer, a
loving mother, a runaway and a kingdom in disarray are the characters and the setting.
Durst shows that entrenched bureaucracy however enlightened
may conspire to spread mediocrity as a means to hold power. Reincarnation and auras are tools that
promote the story. To me, the building
of self-confidence, the belief in one self and loved ones, the awareness that recognition
of self-worth may be frightening to petty and venal despots are fruits of this
splendid learning tree. A learning tree
because reading this may help kids and adults realize that their dreams are
important and that holding on to dreams and persevering to success is possible.
Well done Durst, well done, I feel the wind in my face and the
sand in face!
This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
