Harbinger of Books

This really is a classic love story just in fantasy land. So here is the plot: Mahri goes to a healer tree seeking a healer for her village she asks one person is turned away desperate she blindly chooses a doorway and kidnaps the healer well she soon finds out she has kidnapped the crown prince. Right away they are drawn to each other but he is a prince and she is a water-rat. Together they have some adventures but Mahri has to learn to trust herself.

Now I love SciFi and I love when I keep re-imagining a world which is exactly what comes here, paints such a fantastic detailed picture of each setting and it really worked for me. In the beginning it feels a little awkward but eventually it really worked for me. Mahri is a very interesting widow she has never had anything really and she fears the little she desires will eventually be taken away. Enter a love story **sigh**

This one lost a star because I think the story was to confining from Mahri's POV it would have been better from 3rd person I think. I say this because while I get Mahri's fear at some point it is overwhelming and distracts from the story.
