A review by nightshade_novels
The Pain Merchants, by Janice Hardy

4.0

I picked this up on a whim as the blurb seemed good. I hadn't heard anything about it before. I'm so glad I did as it was really good. I loved the world that has been built in this book. I also enjoyed getting to know the characters and seeing their relationships. Nya's friendship and trust in Danello seemed to blossom rather quickly, but I liked her relationship with her sister Tali and friend Aylin.
This book stands up as a story on its own, but I would really like to get the next book and see where Hardy takes this story next.
