Review: River Secrets


River Secrets
River Secrets by Shannon Hale

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



Of the Books of Bayern so far, I like this one the best. A series that started out as a fairytale retelling has evolved into a fun high fantasy with a mystery to solve and a likable main character. It takes place in the neighboring, exotic country of Tira, the country that invaded Bayern in Enna Burning. It's a dangerous diplomatic mission that starts to go wrong immediately with charred bodies showing up and sentiment against Bayern still raw with memories of Enna's burnings. Enter the trickster, Razo. He's small and wiry, good with a slingshot and terrible with a sword, and he can find things out that no one else can. Is it enough to save Bayern from another war?
