The Sword of the Land

I enjoyed this little book, which I bought at a dollar store. It was decent in pacing. I wanted to know more of the backstory but that did not detract too much. The writing could have used some work. It lives rent free in my head due to the plot "twist" at the end.

Princess Rilsin Sae Becha has to fight to survive when her family is wiped out. Her family is inextricably linked to the land and when she grows up she finds herself having to choose between promises and try to do the right thing for both herself and the land.

It's a pretty common story but well done here.
