My Review:

Robin's life hasn't been the easiest, raised by an alcoholic father after her mother disappeared from her life. Robin's in for some surprises as she finds out who she really is and where her family comes from.

Only problem is, Robin puts others in danger while trying to help someone she loves very much, and now she must risk her life to make things right. Along with a group of men who are given guardianship over her and help her, she goes on an incredible journey that is one of self-discovery as much as setting right the things she put in jeopardy.

The story has a lot of neat places to explore and was quite the interesting read. More for teen readers or those who enjoy teen books, it was a little younger in tone than my normal picks. However, I really did enjoy the fantasy elements. I also thought it had a good moral or message as far as following rules and the consequences of disobeying laws/rules. 

If this sounds like the genre of book you'd like, pick it up for some nice weekend reading. Have a great one!
