BOOK ONE OF THE CRAFT WARS SERIES

Since her village chased her out with pitchforks, Tara Abernathy has resurrected gods, pulled down monsters, averted wars, and saved a city, twice. She thought she'd left her dusty little hometown forever. But that was before her father died.

As she makes her way home to bury him, she finds a girl, as powerful and vulnerable and lost as she once was. Saving her from raiders twisted by the God Wars, Tara changes the course of the world.

Rollercoaster of a story

This book fits the headline I gave it. When the story moves well, the listening audience will thoroughly enjoy it. Unfortunately, this story has some moments that some people might consider dull. However, if the listener is willing to put that notion aside I believe that the listener won’t go wrong with purchasing this story.
