I received an eARC through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This historical fiction had a lot of promise, sadly I felt it under delivered on the suspense and mystery I was looking for from the description of it. I liked the character of Xan, I feel he was plucky and thoughtful. I just wanted a lot more from the other characters and the plot.

I do think that the helpful notes at the beginning will be helpful for younger readers who are reading historical fiction for the first time.

If you're wanting to branch out into historical fiction for the first time, then this might be a good start for you. It is very religion heavy, so if this is something that is perhaps triggering for you in any way, then perhaps skip it.
