GEMMELL IS ADRENALINE WITH SOUL' - Brent Weeks After the bloody battle of Colden Moor the warlike highlanders had lost their independence. They lived in surly subservience to the Outlanders, and only a teenage girl survived to represent the line of kings: Sigarni. Sigarni the silver-haired. Huntress, princess. All of these she was called. But those who pierce the veil of the future knew that a leader was coming to the North - a leader descended from Ironhand, mightiest of the highland kings.

(anche se probabilmente una valutazione più obbiettiva sarebbe di 3 stelle)
Lo tenevo da parte nel caso fossi incappata in una serie troppo lunga di flop e ho fatto bene: un caro vecchio Fantasy finalmente.
Magari un pò classico, forse semplice (o per meglio dire con varie tematiche trattate semplicisticamente) e con ambientazione rubata (Highland scozzesi) ma onesto, con personaggi imperfetti e sufficientemente nobili d'animo da farsi amare facilmente
TRAMA E FORSE SPOILER
una cacciatrice indomita, indipendente e autosufficiente con più sangue Reale nelle vene di quanto non sappia viene costretta dalle circostanze e dal suo stesso caratteraccio ad abbandonare egoismo, spacconate e spensieratezza per unificare e guidare gli Highlander contro gli Stranieri Invasori ( )
