Posted on Dark Faerie Tales.It’s not a secret that I’m a fan of Cayla Kluver and her Legacy series. When I was given a copy of Sacrifice, the third and final book in the series, I jumped for joy. I couldn’t wait to see where Alera would take me next, in her not so normal life, built around a fantast...
Considering this was my most anticipated read in 2012, I feel I have a right to feel so slighted and disappointed by the way it turned out, so bear with me if I get a little too harsh on my criticims:)Not only did it not continue in the venue of the second book, where Alera finally turned from a hes...
A new world, intriguing court life and an ancient prophesy: Legacy carries all the hallmarks of a kick-arse Fantasy, but it ultimately fails on execution and wasn't as enjoyable as I had anticipated. The book is a romantic story masquerading as a Fantasy: most the plot revolves around Princess Alera...
I'm trying to think of how to talk about this book without being mean. I'll try for blunt and hope it doesn't come across to badly. Here's the story: Alera is stuck with the likelihood of marrying a guy she actively dislikes. She's muffled by rules that keep woman from holding power. But out there i...
I loved this book. Yes, I know people rant about hating the descriptions and hating Alera and hating her family and hating Narian and Steldor, but you know? I didn't really mind. The writing was lovely, and the characters were subtle, but deep. You need to be a nuance-reader, I think, to truly appre...
There were times during this book where I just wanted to stop reading it, but I couldn't because I wanted to find out how it ended. It was more a case of my curiosity than an actual love for the book. I can't quite put my finger on why I didn't enjoy it as much as I wanted to - I think it was that i...
One star for the pretty cover, one for the pretty writing.I'm currently just over half way in this book, and nothing has happened that makes me want to keep reading.I'm sure we all have that writing we did when we were fourteen, fifteen. But I never ever let anyone see mine, let alone publish it!Ale...
Alora who was quite stubborn, full of wit and spunk, fought against authority and her duty, like most 17-yr-olds. Once she decided she didn't like Steldor, that was it... nothing was going to change her mind. The only problem I had with the whole thing, was the lack of Narian's personality. Most o...
3.5 starsFrom Goodreads' description of the book:"In her seventeenth year, Princess Alera of Hytanica faces one duty: to marry the man who will be king. But her father's choice of suitor fills her with despair.When the palace guard captures and intruder—a boy her age with steel-blue eyes, hailing fr...
Semplice, lineare e ben scritto si legge più che volentieri mentre la trama ti invoglia leggere anche il libro successivo. Un bel fantasy classico in un panorama di vampiri e compagnia cantante. Se le relazioni tra le persone, e anche le "azioni" possono risultare troppo semplicistiche a volte la st...
