Grand fantasy
Percik pens a fantastical story in The Defiant Spark. I haven't read anything from this author before, and I really enjoyed it. The world shows that mana has power when there isn't electricity, and the people called the artisans control mana. This is a grand fantasy and part sci-fi story. Abelard is a man who strives to live a better life, be part of the artisans, and then ... well, you'll have to read what comes next. It's a well-written, well told story about the new world of artisans where there are secrets and conspiracies at every twist and turn. The thrills and intrigue is written clearly and the characterizations are engrossing. This author's characters develop and interacts well with the other characters. I look forward to reading many more stories by this author. This book is a definite recommendation by Amy's Bookshelf Reviews.
