    <body><![CDATA[I actually really enjoyed this book!  It's the kind of fantasy novel where Our Plucky Heroine is chosen by the gods for a great fate she doesn't want, and she has to accept her destiny and save the world.  In that sense it reminded me a lot of Kristen Britain's Green Rider books, and indeed, Britain...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/40212546">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[It's amazing how little happens in the first third of this book. The author drags out what should be a short introduction to the main plot of the story. <br/><br/>And later, too many compliments are given the main character, in too short a period of time.  I wasn't digging this novel from near the...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/68586394">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[The story itself is very enjoyable. There is adventure, romance, friendship, and betrayal. Some parts are touching while others are tragic. The pacing is even for the most part. This novel does suffer alittle from first book in a trilogy syndrome, there is alot of setup and back-story to cover, but ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/48932392">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book was a pretty darn decent read. The setting is rather reminiscent of Mercedes Lackey's Valdemar universe, though without such an intricately formulated &quot;magic&quot; structure. It was easy to read and get into.

There are a lot of secondary characters that can be sometimes hard to keep track of, but overall well done.  Especially nice is the lack of explicit sex scenes.
