A review by zoealyce
Stars of Fortune by Nora Roberts
4.0
I was a little apprehensive picking up this book after my attempt at reading the Dark Witch trilogy by Nora Roberts...
And now I feel a little silly for doubting the creative genius that is Ms Roberts.
Firstly, I simply loved this book! I can't wait for the next one!! It was a lovely story, and the adventure was exciting. I loved the magical touch! In fact, the intrigue created by those magical touches is probably what kept me reading.
This book is written in 3rd person... And almost reads like there's an omniscient narrator. There was several POVs and it changed between them regularly.. (Which usually well and truly grinds my gears!) - but not this time.
It worked.
I think it bothered me less because there was still moments where I felt emotionally connected to the characters...or perhaps it was because the secondary characters were all quite loveable and unique.
Regardless, intriguing story, with a bit of romance, lots of adventure and a hint of magic.
A must read
