 This book blew me away! It was an amazing book. Every page brought me in, needless to say a lot of all nighters were taken to finish this book. If you like holly blacks New fairy series ( Valiant was my favorite) You will definitely like this book as much as I did. It's about: Ame always knew she was different. The voices in her head reminded her all the time. Anti-psychotics couldn't stop them. Her abduction from her home to the underworld was foretold. What seemed at first a nightmare, however, turns around. Her kidnapper, Freddy, actually has the heart to protect and care for her. And her new best friend, Bless, a tall and sarcastic American chick with a bastard for a boyfriend, reveals to her the hidden nature which is her birthright. What follows is an extraordinary adventure in the heart of a contemporary American city. Ame is both intrigued and conflicted by the violent practices her people employ, to survive a culture of fear. What choice does she have? There is no going back! The alchemy is in her blood. Some will live to tell. Others must die. Guys you need to read this with no if ands or buts it's a really great book. I highly recommend! P.S these are my own opinions.
Ame always knew she was different. The voices in her head reminded her all the time. Anti-psychotics couldn't stop them. Her abduction from her home to the underworld was foretold. She enters the sordid heart of present day Oakland, California, a world misshapen by a culture of fear, and takes her place within a divergent tribe of people with extraordinary capabilities. Her heart beats fast. Curiosity soon replaces suspicion and apprehension. Life has changed into something mysterious and wonderful. She no longer feels so alienated. She forms a bond with Freddy, the one tasked to kidnap her and bring her home. Through him she meets a tall and brazen American chick, and a sister in Bless. Then finds companionship in a young blood with a skateboard and a serious ice cream sandwich habit. Her new friends and associations nurture her, in fearless fashion, toward a purpose far greater than she could ever have imagined. Together they roam the streets, encountering humans and spirits, mercilessly exacting a toll only humans can pay. The alchemy is in her blood. No library descriptions found. |
