This is the first novel Manon Fargetton I read, but surely not the last. If I loved the story and the characters, it is especially Manon style that conquered me from the first lines. I could not explain it clearly, but it really has a special pen, a very modern kind of writing but which does not denature all kind of ... It's really what convinced me, which makes me want to read other novels by the author. And very soon, even! But I have not much to reproach the novel, actually. I loved the story, really exciting, and I struggled to stand the novel. I also loved all the characters. All well portrayed, full of defects, all very credible and very endearing, even in their most negative sides.
Heritage of Kings-Passeurs is the story of two worlds. Our, finally, the world as we know it: Shore, and its mirror, Shadow. The two worlds are eerily similar, yet completely different. In Shadow, you can meet mages and dragons to turn a corner, for example. But still, Bank and Shadow remain linked mainly by their inhabitants. But do not expect me to tell you more, nor this, nor blacks Portraits ... And yet, what I want to talk about, so I liked this side of plot!
So what about the story? It mainly follows Enora young daughter of our world, following a tragedy, discovers she can take refuge in the shade. It has the power to pass from one world to the other and it did not seem to be a popular gift, from one side to the other. Fortunately for her, she will have great allies and protectors, I let you discover. Meanwhile, we also discover the fiery Ravenn, character I A-DO-RE. The young woman comes reclaim the throne that is hers, even if she is not welcome. And Ravenn is one of those characters you're forced to love as they give good big kick in the anthill. Of course, the fate of the two women is linked. Even if they are not animated by the same thirst, one of revenge, the other power, they will have to unite to recover what is rightfully theirs.
What a pleasant reading, really. I do not expect to be swept away with such violence, and now I must regret having read the novel so quickly, as the atmosphere which is his miss. At the same time, it was just me not to take my time, seen the page-turner that I had in my hands. I liked the fact that even without stand totally what we usually see in fantasy, Manon had been able to offer us a bit of originality, a more than interesting plot and characters far from any cliché. This novel is a concentrate of emotions, it will make you switch from laughter to tears, he will return as a pancake, it will leave you breathless. You please, believe me. Dare I go to the heart stroke? I feel that I distribute freely, right now. I'm either very good audience, a very lucky reader. Anyway, I loved the Heritage of Kings, couriers, and I recommend it.
The end of the novel is final, it proves to the reader full of hope that no, there will not be on. But Manon is currently writing a novel taking place in the shade, where we find some characters of the Heritage of Kings-Passeurs. And it is needless to say that I can not wait! Go ahead, please. If you have already read (and therefore necessarily liked) the novel, Manon continues on Book Month in stock until May 8, so go check it out!
