REVIEW – “TRAITOR’S PATH, a young adult fantasy / adventure
https://www.hyperboreabooks.com/
“Traitor’s Path” by E. M. Zolotor (@hyperboreabooks) starts with a major character braving through the torture of a whipping.
From the 1st sentence to the last, “Traitor’s Path” follows its predecessor “Severed Legacy” in the Hyperborea adventure series – engaging super powers of mystical creatures . . . and the magic that threads one chosen generation to the next.
This engrossing book challenges the smart reader to fall from great heights - pierce through impenetrable barriers - solve rigged mysteries - overpower enormous enemies - recover from fatal wounds . . . and feel compassion for those who were born into the wrong world with bad options.
The action is fast and threatening. Readers surge through scenes filled with peril, withstand the stench and horror of lands cursed with evil . . . and drift through unrivaled beauty. Where is their destiny?
Readers may try to judge characters as either good or bad. When readers come to care about many of the characters, however, readers may find that “good” and “bad” sometimes look the same.
No dictionary will define the words created in these different worlds. Readers just decode strange words as part of the characters’ strange lives. Full understanding comes when the story reveals itself to special readers - who know treasure when they find it.
The reader, who will most enjoy this book, is one who wants to live in each page . . . as the end will come too soon.
