Alright, so I read the first chapter and I can already tell I love the Mage LOL (I refuse to attempt to spell his name from memory).

I am...a little.....lost on the whole sacrificing thing!?!? I feel as if I get the general gist, but the specific details and names threw me off LOL. Correct me if I'm wrong, but basically in this village this girl was chosen to be a sacrifice for her and her villages God, but she has doubts, magical wizard dude says "no.", and they run away together. Right??

I loved the ending and am excited to see where it's heading!!!


Alicia (alisaurus_) | 21 comments SAME HES MY FAVORITE SO FAR HAHA

Also yea I think they sacrifice one girl every so often to the Unspoken One who's like their god I guess to keep it happy? But yea they ran away together!! I thought that was so cool.

I'm also really obsessed with how all the characters in her hometown are like so brutal. But I'm excited to see her like discover the world and stuff she deserves it. Also I'm on chapter 4 now!

LOL! I imagine him to be like.....a very intelligent nerdy look dude, but in a very attractive way? I can't describe it LOL. Since they were saying that he looked very ordinary in comparison to them. Kinda like a Matthew Gray Gubler maybe?

I can't wait to keep reading AH


Alicia (alisaurus_) | 21 comments OMG yes I can totally see that haha. But same I’m so excited to read more of this book!!

I also love how the main character is like an orc who are usually the bad guys in like video games and stuff. So cool!!

I think I'm on chapter three....or four maybe? I can't remember off of the top of my head LOL!

But....I am LOVING it so far! I love experiencing the new things that our main character is doing (am not going to try pronouncing or spelling her name LOL). It's just so interesting and I'm trying to figure out the wizard. I have like a suspicion that he may be evil, but I hope not!


Alicia (alisaurus_) | 21 comments Same I'm loving it!!! I really like how we get to see her age too. And I also think something is fishy with the wizard!! Like obviously he's a really good guy towards Csorwe but maybe he's like.. rogue or something?? like a criminal?? i can't wait to read more and see where it goes!!

YES SAME!

This quote right here -> "She tried to forget that Oranna might be waiting for them at the end of the journey. She might, or she might not. And either way, whatever Oranna meant by all this, Sethennai would be there to take Csorwe’s side. It was ridiculous to worry that Oranna would somehow drag her back to the House of Silence. Sethennai would never let that happen"

It made me very sketched out on these two, I still dont' know what to expect it's so......AH??!? for the lack of a better word LOL


Alicia (alisaurus_) | 21 comments Yea Sethennai and Oranna are TOTALLY plotting something with the Relequary but I have no idea what. It’s so exciting!!!

Also I am currently reading chapter 5!


Alicia (alisaurus_) | 21 comments hey!! sorry i really havent read much these past two days ive been so busy. i just finished chapter 5!!

I'm currently in the middle of a move so each week I go back and forth and drop off a few things, so I didn't get tooooo far into the book. I'm right about where you are too!


Alicia (alisaurus_) | 21 comments ok nice HAHA
