- As a child, Karen suffered frequent bouts of insomnia. The only way she could settle into sleep many nights was to imagine stories that played out like movies on the dark ceiling over her bed. Since her mean parents refused to replace the TV after the cat blew it up by peeing on the cord, all Karen had left to entertain herself in the lone wilds of the Minnesota wilderness were books and her own stories. As Karen grew, the stories grew with her. One day when she was fourteen, she told her mother one of these stories for probably the hundredth time. Her mother, who knew Karen very well, turned to her and said, “You know, Karen, you keep talking about these stories, but you never write them down. You keep saying you’re going to write a novel, but I don’t believe that you will.” This comment infuriated Karen so much that she started writing her stories down and hasn’t stopped since.

The only niggle I would say is (and it is only a small thing) is that Safire's character seems to change half-way through. She beomes a bit, well soppy.You just want to give her a bit of a shake and tell her to pull herself together. I say it is a small niggle because apart from my slight annoyance, the story still works. It is a will they, won't they get together scenario and I can see why it was done.
Still, this is book is full of court intrigue, romance, action and great psychic abilities.
I definitely recommend this book and I would have given it five stars but for the wimpyness of the heroine near the end.
This book will not disappoint but I would say devote some time to it, it deserves it. This is a well crafted story which will keep you reading until the end.
This book was the June 2011 choice in the Fantasy Book Club for under $3 on Amazon Discussions.… (mehr)
