Walk in between worlds is a book that managed to make me emotionally attached to a kitchen knife.
The book follows the adventures of Sergeant Scratch, a promising King guard with big plans for her career, a short stature and a strong temperament.
This book has many comical sketches that made me giggle, I should have seen this coming since the writer is also a comedian.
Scratch is matched with her inseparable friend James who is a good lad and an amazing friend.
When the promising future in the army gets twisted when Scratch becomes a unlikely damsel in distress, imprisoned with James for a crime that they didn’t commit, it's time for the Shae siblings to come to the rescue.
Vel and his sister Brella save the day but bring more complications and magic on the table.
I deeply loved the discussion about the “seamstress”.
I won’t say too much because I can’t spoil the book but different gender roles are involved.
In the turbulent and political intrigues that follow Scratch and James there are the “Walk between worlds” and magical creatures “Fae” encounters.
I have to be honest I didn’t feel as much passion for the main romance happening as much as I did for a story told by two faes that Scratch meets.
It wasn’t badly written, just didn’t feel as smooth and natural.
Scratch character growth is intense and quite turbulent, she still fights with the skills she learnt from her training in the king's guard.
I think it is good for once that in a Fantasy book the hero doesn't just throw away a life they fought hard for to go run in the magical lands with the fairies but keep pursuing and use their talent for a rightful cause.
This reading was really funny and relaxing since the story is not overly complicated and I couldn’t put my book down because I could see that there was a lot in Scratch story to be told.
I love when fantasy books have that funny tone and ease in the story telling.
I always have a soft spot for small stubborn characters that are misjudged by their size.
I can’t wait for a sequel or another story by Samara Breger.
If you want a fun read with a lot of cute tropes, to learn why Scratch is called Scratch and why I got so emotionally attached to a kitchen knife please read this book!
