![]() ![]() The character and world development in this book were PHENOMINAL. *WARNING: I WILL START GOING INTO SPOILERS HERE* I HIGHLY recommend this series to any fantasy lovers, or anyone who loves strong female leads who can kick butt. Messenger's stunning descriptions of the characters emotions had me laughing out loud, made me want to throw my book against the wall in anger, feel heartache and sadness that made me want to cry, and yet made me feel hopeful and curious and intrigued, and yet other scenes made me want to root for these characters to fight and succeed, while others made me melt into a puddle of happiness. ![]() Shannon Messenger does an amazing job describing the world and Sophie's emotions with vivid writing that makes you feel like the scene is being transmited into your mind. But all is not well with Sophie, between her mysterious headaches, learning about her friends and family, a new goblin bodyguard, and most importantly the crypyic messages from the elusive Black Swan group, she has a lot on her mind for a thirteen year old girl. ![]() Our tale starts out with our main character, Sophie Foster, encountering Silveny, the first female alicorn ever seen in the Lost Cites, and getting ready for her first full year at Foxfire, the elvin academy she attends. So if you have not read the first book, stop reading this review immediately and buy it. This book is absoulutely WONDERFUL! Just warning you now, I will be spoiling parts of the book later in this review. ![]()
