Customer Reviews
Solid, good-hearted adventure tale, tightly plotted and quick paced. Anya is an excellent lead, strong and kind, pushing on despite her fears and constantly striving to do what's right in the face of uncertainty. The stakes are dramatic and believable. Enthusiastically recommended.
