Title: Daughters of the Storm
Author: Kim Wilkins
My Rating: 4.5 stars
Five very different sisters work to save their father, the king, while trying to keep their own secrets. Bluebell, the oldest and most loyal to her father, is a warrior, a fierce fighter that brings fear to her enemies. Rose is a queen, married off to a neighboring king to bring about peace, but if her king knew her secrets.... Ash is studying magic, but is more powerful than she should be at her age. Ivy and Willow, the twins -- Ivy is lustful and vain, while Willow has turned to the trimartyr faith, believing her family to be heathens. Will they be able to save their father and stop their treacherous step brother from taking the throne?
I really enjoyed this book, both the flow and the story. I know some reviewers felt there were too many characters, but I think that each character had just enough individuality and personality to stand apart enough for me to keep track. Some of the characters are more likeable than others, but that is true to any novel, and with this any characters, it would unrealistic to like them all.
This is a well written fantasy novel that starts the Blood and Gold series, but it does not leave on too much of a cliffhanger.
