{Book Review} "Memory's Wake" by Selina Fenech


Book Description:



Lost in a world full of monstrous fairies, a troubled sixteen year old has to find out who she is and why her memories were stolen before she is found by those who want her dead.

She takes the name "Memory" and knows she has just one goal - to find her way home, wherever that is. But this land is strange. No technology to be seen, and iron is banned, thanks to a pact the humans have with the magical creatures who share their pre-industrial era world. In her t-shirt and torn jeans, Memory knows she's different, even before she performs impossible magic.

Haunted by her past, chased by a dragon, wanted by the king and stalked by the strange, handsome savage that seems to know her, everyone is after Memory, and she suspects it's not just for her eye-catching outfit. Her forgotten past holds dangerous secrets that will challenge everything she believes and risk the lives of everyone she loves.

Memory's Wake contains 44 black and white illustrations by the author and artist. Approx. 80,000 words or 320 pages in paperback.

Review:



Selina pens "Memory's Wake" in a unique and original plot filled with beautiful illustrations from the author, that will show you a visual story. The story line flows nicely to the end, with a few twists and turns and a slight cliffhanger at the end. Her characters are strong and believable, this is one book that you will have trouble putting down until your finished. Highly recommended for all YA and not so YA fantasy, paranormal romance fans.

I give "Memory's Wake" a 5 star rating.
