Cosmina is a young oracle and warrior,
reluctantly called into service by the goddess of all things. Yet,
as she prepares to perform an ancient ritual, evil forces are already
on the move. Henrik and his team of elite assassins are trying to
track down Cosmina, not realizing their intruder is a young woman
working for good. They soon find themselves defending her against
their mutual enemies.
I loved the well built world in this
novel. It was easy to be drawn into it, and to feel a part of the
surroundings. Cosmina and Henrik are complex characters, each trying
to do the right thing yet feeling alienated from the beliefs they
were raised on. They find common ground and a steamy love affair
begins. (I wouldn't hand a copy of this to your teenage daughter!)
However, it isn't long before they have to get back to reality and
fight together for the survival of all they have ever known.
Henrik's band of compatriots are especially fascinating, each with
their own magical abilities and skills.
This book is part of the Circle of
Seven series by this author. I really enjoyed it and would like to
read more from this author.
