Review
Miera, orphaned as an infant, is one of eight survivors who managed to escape when their Kingdom of Winter was conquered and their citizens enslaved. There is no monarch or magic and it is up to these eight survivors to restore their kingdom. Miera has been trained as a warrior. Her best friend is the future king. This fantasy is full of adventure, magic, and evil. There is also a love triangle. I found the story difficult to follow at times, but as the story progressed the momentum increased. There are several surprises as the ending races to a close. Fantasy fans will enjoy this unique story of Miera finding her purpose.
Overall Book Score: very good
