The Ninja Daughter by Tori Eldridge
4.0
Thanks to the publisher for the free copy in exchange for my honest review
3.5 rounded up to 4 stars for rating
This is book one in the Lily Wong series and this was definitely an action packed debut! The title definitely caught my immediate attention, as someone that did martial arts for the majority of my life, I was really curious to see how this would be incorporated.
Lily is a Norwegian-Chinese woman that has taken it upon herself to become a vigilante of sorts. She is there to protect women and their children from any abusers. She’s a really fun character and we get a demonstration almost immediately of her skills as a ninja.
I enjoyed getting glimpses of her heritage and I think the author did a good job illustrating both sides of her family (the Norwegian side and Chinese side). While there was a bunch of action, there were a few parts where I felt it had a lull, but not enough to ruin the pacing entirely.
I think this is a solid debut and a great start to a new series. I would love to see where things continue with Lily Wong and to see what adventures the author takes us on!
