Sometimes you just know you’re going to love a book. Can I please pull a Jerry Maguire and say Ginger had me with the first line? Couldn’t help it—I assaulted people for days, insisting they share the brilliance of her opening barrage. Probably not the best strategy as I had to hide the book from the kiddies to get the review written.
This is a fun read and Ginger really knows how to tell a story. The interplay of history juxtaposed against the spiritual forces running alongside weave in and out from the natural realm to the spiritual to create a fascinating view into What Might Be. The story barrels along building steam. I mean really—how does she do it? We’re talking the Black Plague here—not a lot of mystery how this will end. And yet, she’s crafted a story within a story to build suspense right up to her lovely ending.
This is why I read books. I’m heading over to buy the first book in the series right this minute.
Nice job, Ginger.
