Blistered by Deidre Huesmann
3.0
Blistered by Deidre Huesmann is the first book in the Modern Greek Myth series. The story is about Azalee and Joel. Azalee is kept as a prisoner of her people in a dark, dirty cell. All she wants is to be free. Joel has a destiny to fulfill and part of that includes Azalee. Joel frees Azalee but there are many challenges ahead for the two as they make their escape. Both are considered outcasts and cannot take a proper name. Also, Azalee is “Blistered” by the Gods and cannot travel in the sun or she will burn and and blister. Joel on the other hand needs sunlight to survive. The third person in the party is Niribelle. She is cunning and beautiful.
The story is interesting despite my memory of Greek mythology. The teens are honest and believable. Azalee is properly cautious of all people. Joel is sweet and kind, with a heart of gold. He does the best to make the best decisions in the situations they get into. Niribelle is a factor that has an agenda all her own. Will the three make it to their destination?
This was my first book by Deidre Huesmann and I enjoyed the story. I will be reading the next in the series to see where the story goes. I enjoy that the story left off and I want to know what happens next for the characters. This is a good story for a teen or older person. There is suspense, adventure, mythology, friendship, and more. Worth taking the time to check it out.
