Summer Reading Challenge Book 5: A Warden's Purpose

A Warden's Purpose by Jeffrey L. Kohanek

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I haven’t read any YA for years and as such A Warden’s Purpose was a bit of change of pace for me. However, once I got into it I started having pleasant nostalgic feelings, back to my David Edding’s days when the world seemed full of wonder and magic. The story is quick paced using a flashback recounting to bring us up to speed with how it all opens. The magic system is interesting, and I feel there is a lot more to learn in subsequent books as the main characters hone their skills. Perhaps my favourite point is the balance between the two protagonists, who share a special bond, yet are total opposites of the spectrum, making them compliment each other so well. There are enough twists and turns to keep you guessing and some healthy doses of betrayal. Will be reading on!
