Title: Sky in the Deep
Author: Adrienne Young
My Rating: 4.5 stars
Eelyn is a warrior, taught to fight and survive. She is fighting alongside her clansmen when she sees her brother fighting on the side of the enemy -- the same brother that died five years before. Feeling betrayed she goes after her brother, only to be taken alive by the enemy, and forced to live with them for a while. In time, she finds herself developing feelings for one of the enemy clan. And after an attack by another clan that nearly decimates the enemy clan and her own, she has to work to bring the two clans together.
I really enjoyed this well-written warrior tale. Unlike a lot of typical YA books, the romance was not immediate, it took some time before Eelyn began to trust Fiske and developed feelings for him. The summary on the book would have you think it happens faster than it actually does.
Eelyn is a strong female character with loyal ties to her family. The book starts out action packed, with down time in the middle, but ends by amping up the action again. It is an exciting and riveting debut novel by this new author..
