¿Qué es esta belleza? ¡Me alegro tanto de haberme topado con este libro! Admito que el inicio me pareció lento y no entendía absolutamente nada por tanto término naval, pero es lindo aprender nuevo vocabulario gracias a los libros. Sin embargo, la historia llega a un punto en el que simplemente uno no puede parar. El coraje y la valentía de Fable son de ensueño, y el misterio de Saint y West hace que uno fantasee en esta vida y la otra.

A veces me cuesta leer fantasía, porque los lugares ficticios y nombres me generan un laberinto mental, pero una vez que me acostumbro, me encanta cómo hace volar mi imaginación y me transporta a un mundo más interesante. En específico, este mundo de comerciantes y piratas es intrigante y me recuerda la emoción que siento al ver “Piratas del Caribe”.

Me quedo con todas las ganas de leer el siguiente libro, porque termina de una manera brutal.

¿Ahora qué hago con mis ganas de que se materialice un West en la vida real?

I started the book with expectations of loving it. I don't know if it was me or the book but I struggled to stay engaged or to finish. I adore the sea and figured this would be a great story that would keep me super engaged. It did not. I admit it could be me. A lot is going on in my personal life and my mind has been distracted and I was using the audiobook.

It's essentially gem trading meets pirating meets a girl ditched by her father without a mother. There's a little bit of a love story at the end but it's not the primary focus. It could be in the next book but I doubt it. The primary focus is the girl and her father's relationship or lack thereof. I think I just wasn't in the right headspace to enjoy this book.

I have been putting off reading this because I was worried I would be disappointed. I really enjoyed it, though!
It wasn't entirely what I expected, but the characters and setting drew me in.
