Eris Helgren knew her life was about to end. A daughter of the Priory--a generations-old family who protected their territories from nightwalkers--Eris was strong and independent. But on her birthday, her father would announce her betrothal. A year later, she would be forced to marry.
What Eris didn’t know was that the very beings she hunted were watching her, and that being tamed wasn’t what would kill her after all.
In a land where the woods were forbidden and the laws meant life, Eris will have to make a decision that could bring peace between enemies, or war among friends.
Review By Fidah
Eyes of the Woods is a debut novel by
fifteen year old, Eden Fierce. It is a paranormal fantasy book where two sides have
been involved in a conflict for years.
This book was a very quick and short read.
It has less than 300 pages yet it felt as though so much has happened
throughout the whole book. For that reason, I really admire Eden’s writing. The
ability to make a short book feel as though you’ve been through a lot with the
characters. Eden Fierce’s writing is simply remarkable.
Her writing was very smooth. I had no
trouble getting into the world. I was hooked from the first page. Other than
that, I appreciated the dialogues in the story. It suited very well to the
theme and setting of the book.
The world and setting of the book is not
the most developed. However, I wasn’t bothered by it. There were a lot on
intriguing and unique elements that contributed to the whole story. There was
never a dull moment. Furthermore, it wasn’t very predictable. I also liked how
the nightwalkers were similar to vampires in a way, yet they weren’t.
The characters in the book were pleasant. I
have grown to love and care for them especially Eris, her family and love
interest. The relationship and bond that she had with these characters and the
friends she has made were such joy to read about.
All in all, I really loved and enjoyed this
book. I did not go into much detail about the plot because I think it’s a book
worth going into on your own. It’s a very fast read so you’ll fly through this.
I finished this book in less than a day. It was a fantastic book filled with
adventure, action and romance. I’m looking forward to reading more books by
this lovely author.
