Book Review: King's Blood

King's Blood is the second installment of the Kinsman Chronicles. Jill Williamson, the author is so talented, she leaves you sitting on the edge of your seat waiting for each part of the series. I will let you know that it is a good idea to read the first book, The King's Folly first to really connect with the characters.

Wilek and Trevn, brothers, as well as their people are trying to survive on the seas, looking for a place to land. As they are doing this they are being attacked by those that are against the royal members.

This thick book is a book to get lost in. There is adventure, fantasy, romance, fighting. A little something for every adult. I would recommend that only adults read this. There are parts of it that, even though well-written, are for the more mature audience.

Overall, I fell like I can give this book all the starts there are. I loved it.

I was given this book by Bethany House Publishing in exchange for my honest review. 

Book Review: The Glass Castle

Avery was kidnapped on her thirteenth birthday and taken to a castle where there were other thirteen-year-old children from the kingdom. It seems that every castle in the area had dark secrets and Avery needs to find out what these are so she can find her father and brother.

The authors attracted me to the book originally. I knew that I would be drawn in and feel like the I was in the story. They did not disappoint, I felt like I was in the story and the events were surrounding me. The characters were so well-developed and there is enough mystery to keep its audience engaged.

I feel like this book would be enjoyed by a wide audience, including middle school children.

Book Review: The Traitor's Heir

Eamon Goodman is taking his oath to become a member of the Gauntlet. This has been a goal of his for years. At the time he is taking the oath he feels something is speaking to him. This also made him do things he would have never dreamt he would do. This leads to his life being set in turmoil. Then he meets someone that has the same characteristics that he believes in. Now he must choose follow the King or keep the oath.

I was drawn into the story by the story overview plus the fact that it is a fantasy book. After the main character is turned, the reader is not sure which path he is going to take. The characters in the book were so well-written that I caught myself feeling for them and caring for what would happen. I believe that those that enjoy fantasy will also enjoy this book.
