Unexplainably wonderful journey
Blackthorn pens a brilliant story in The Drago Tree. I have read many works from this author before, and I really enjoyed each of them. Blackthorn is a magnificent story "shower" more than just a "teller." The setting of landscapes, on this dreamy, gorgeous island, set the stage for Ann's journey. It's about self-discovery and struggles to find herself. The island's secrets, help Ann figure out her own way. What a magnetic, page turning story. Passion, not just in the story, but how the story is written. This story has so many levels, that it makes up the entire story. It's character driven, but also setting driven, and how the past always lingers, no matter where you go. This author has a great imagination and I'm glad it's being shared with stories. The thrills and intrigue is written clearly, and the characterizations are engrossing. The author's technique of raw, magnetic characters and great plotlines is a gift. It's a great story to follow and try to figure out what will happen next. This read is more than just words on a page. The Drago Tree is a definite recommendation by Amy's Bookshelf Reviews. I look forward to reading many more stories by this author.
