Review
I was provided a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review and agreed to read it because I enjoy Ruth Silver’s writing style. This book is a young adult fantasy novel which is not a genre I normally read, but it took me back to younger days when this would have been right up my alley.
When Lil finds herself transported to Orenda, she is first convinced that it’s merely a dream. Lil quickly discovers this is not the case and sets out on a journey that she never would have imagined possible. I don’t want to give up too many details, but I believe this story could easily be enjoyed by readers as young as ten and would be enjoyed most by preteens and teens.
Ruth Silver does a fantastic job of creating the fantasy world of Orenda. It was well-crafted and easy to picture. The characters are all likable and easy to connect to, with the exception of the evil sorceress bent on destroying two worlds. The story moved at a fast pace and was filled with action. This is book one in a series, so it does end with some unanswered questions and unsolved plots. Still, it was not an unsatisfying ending. A great start to this series.
