Blood of the Four by Christopher Golden
5.0
I received this book in a Pagehabit subscription box with annotations from the author, and at first I was a bit skeptical. Someone else choosing a book for me? Weird, right?
WELL LET ME TELL YOU HOW AMAZING THIS BOOK WAS. First off, I am a sucker for any fantasy novel with super awesome women. I will take anything with at least one woman who isn't a typical "save me, I'm a princess." This book had so many great characters. I'm literally trying to count them off in my head right now and I can't. Daria, Myrinne, Shome, Mouse, all of the Silent, COUNTLESS City Guards. They were all severely awesome. Not one dimensional either.
The general plot was very exciting too. I am a slow reader, and often I get bored or lost in a book so I end up just giving up. However, I finished this rather quickly. It was never boring, never slowed down, and I did lose my breath a couple of times. I would highly recommend this book.
