Ivy's debut is an emotional adventure of five unlikely friends bound together by their will to survive a tyrannical Queen who will stop at nothing to extinguish a prophecy that will end her rule. Ivy does a masterful job creating a fantastical setting where the reader gets to witness her beloved characters grow, handle betrayal, fall in love, change themselves and in the process change the world. The dialog is fun and witty and each character is easy to get to know while emotionally complex. I can't wait to read what she writes next.
