AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH
Aurora is the queen of Perceforest and the queen of the Moors which causes a problem because the people from the Moors don’t trust the people of Perceforest and vice versa. Aurora knows that if she can get the people to talk and learn to appreciate their differences that they would get along, but every effort she makes to help them understand each other is thwarted. Prince Phillip is a good friend, and she has her advisor, Lord Ortolan, but someone is exaggerating the rift between the two kingdoms and trying to push them towards war.
Holly Black creates a fantastic fantasy world once again. I felt like I was in a movie while I read and could visualize the setting and the characters. I enjoyed the conflict and the hint of romance while I cheered on Aurora. Fun read and a great cover.
