Official Synopsis:
Bridget Lederele is Keeper of the Light on Sand Island, shunned by the mainland following the birth and death of her bastard child and rumours of her psychic visions. Now she keeps the lighthouse blazing, warning sailors away from the rocky dangers of the lake. Her life is thrown into turmoil when she rescues the tattooed stranger Kalami from the wreckage of his boat and tells her she is needed in another world to defeat the sorceress step-daughter of the Empress Dowager Medeoan. Seeing the chance for a new start, Bridget accepts Kalami's offer but the world she finds waiting for her is unlike anything she has been promised.
In Other Words:
A wonderful tale of alternate worlds full of magic and mystery. This was a magnificent fantasy novel whereby none of the characters were truly multi faceted individuals, it kept you guessing the whole way through and left you gasping with the double crossing and treachery that plays out as each vies for survival.
Verdict
10/10
