Just finished Remnants: Season of Wonder by Lisa Bergren and wanted to give rgz a heads up to watch for it. Talk about a fierce female protagonist. Andriana, a gifted Remnant, teamed with her Knight, Ronan, join the elite teen group of Ailith who are charged to heal the world. Set in the future, following the The Great War, the small band goes questing for their rightful leader.
Even as an empath, Andriana doesn't hold back from fighting her own battles. The conflicts are physical, intense, and realistic. The reader has to wonder if Bergren is a kick boxer herself.
Quick quotes that held great meaning to me:
"The road became more a series of unified elements, a path that led us forward rather than a barrage of threatening blocks."
"Every time I give in to concern about tomorrow, even my next hour, I rob this hour, this day of strength, peace."
One note: Andriana visits a society practicing gendercide. Bergren gives the fullest ramifications of the practice. What a complimentary work to my own Firstborn. Want to know more and reach out? Check out It's a Girl movie on Netflix, Instant View.
Can't wait for Remnants: Season of Fire, Jan. 15, 2015!
