So, after some initial difficulties, I quite liked the novel. Just about anything could happen and things are afoot here… Especially the heroine’s journey on her own (that goes on for quite a bit) was rather interesting! The world Flanders created certainly keeps you on your toes. However, I quickly took a liking to the concept of magic Flanders presents here. Princess? Discovers some of her magical abilities? Kingdoms at war? Fighting? Conspiracies? It has nothing to do with the book per se but rather it’s because I read so many novels just like it recently.
Not if Jennesara, with her forbidden magic, hopes to defeat the mage before he becomes unstoppable and destroys all the kingdoms on the Plateau.Īt first, I was a little bit hesitant about Shielded. But with war threatening at every border and the murder of her family fresh in her mind, she can’t reveal her identity to anyone, including the prince. She befriends the prince she was supposed to wed and works her way into Turia’s palace. She’s barely alive when she stumbles out of the Wild and into Turia, but vows to find a way to protect others from the mage’s destruction. Knowing she has to survive for her kingdom’s sake, Jennesara flees into the Wild, chased by hunger, wolves, and shadowmen. At the same moment, a mage bent on revenge blasts through her traveling party, killing everyone in his path to get to her. While traveling to Turia, she feels the magical tethers connecting her to her family snap one by one-a sign of her family’s death.
She is supposed to wed the prince of Turia to strengthen the alliance between their kingdoms. As second born to Hálendi’s royal family, Princess Jennesara was never supposed to inherit magic.
