For the younger reader, this book has it all: a hidden princess, magical creatures, and a role in which the heroine needs to unite men and mystics in her world. For the more mature reader, all the angst became a little bit tedious. On the whole, it was a good beginning and I’m looking forward to the next book in the series. Brenda Scott Wlazlo’s narration was fine as she provided various voices for the different characters which added to the story’s entertainment. I was given a free copy of the audiobook and I have voluntarily left this review.
