Daughter of the Flames by Zoe Marriott
Every now and then I need to review a book that I simply didn’t like. These reviews usually get the most response so I am ready and waiting.
Zira was raised in a temple, training to become a warrior priestess. But on the eve of her sixteenth birthday she discovers that she is actually the daughter of the country’s former ruling family. Suddenly her life changes. She must marry for a political alliance. And with the assistance of her friends she leads the fight against the usurper.
Sorry, but this book was simply too trite. All the way through I felt the author was a Tammy Pierce wannabee. And the romance was laid on just too thick for the age group that would be likely to accept this fantastical tale.
But I have to read some bad books, it helps to appreciate the good ones.
