Sacrifice

For someone so young as Miss Kluver, one wouldn ´t expect to find the perfect author. She has an amazing way to tell a story not just the plot and the storytelling, but most of all the characters! Each and every character is a real person. Most authors only take time to give their main characters depth, not so Miss Kluver. Even someone who only appears for a page is filled with emotions, history and purpose. I never read a series like the Legacy Trilogy. And I´m extremely sad that it is over. Unlike Alera I really love Steldor and I wish he would have been given a story and an happy ending as well but even though I would have preferred that Alera takes part in the rebellion, just the way the author wrote it everything makes sense. She is very loyal to her characters and I´m looking forward to her next novel "Never look back". The story: after the Cokyrians conquered Hythancia, Alera is set as the Grand Provost and Narian is the first in Command in the Province of Hytancia. The Hythancian People are angry and scream for revenge. Behind Alera´s back who tries to make peace between the two nations, a rebellion is planned. The new character in this book, is Shaselle daughter of Baelic and niece of Cannan. She is very stubborn but unfortunately not really helpful in her aim to help the rebellion. This is rather a disappointing turnout for me as I wished someone more active who plays a big part in the rebellion. Unfortunately all women in the book are always amazing but their only use is to influence "manipulate" the men, which is always leading to some kind of "action". But I would have preferred someone like Éowyn.
