More than a page-turner, this is a wild ride! Legends of Astraea – Cupid’s Arrow is a thrilling, fast-paced, coming-of-age epic that includes ancient civilizations, primordial beings, passionate vampires, werewolves and legendary royal immortals. If you like epic tales like The Shannara Chronicles, the mysticism of Dan Brown stories, and the literary legend of Faust, you will appreciate author Sophia Alessandrini’s beautiful descriptions of magical and historical places, as well as references to Greek literature and mythology. Our other-worldly protagonist Ailie has healing powers, the fighting skills of a Samurai warrior and possesses a sharp wit and playful irreverent voice that makes this complex story accessible to a YA audience. This is a story about friendship, loyalty, trust, perseverance and essentially the power of love. I am looking forward to the next book in this series. 5/5 Stars!
