Evocative, original worldbuilding and a wonderfully feisty heroine:
top marks to Lucy Hounsom
*Karen Miller*
A brave heroine, a perilous destiny, and an intriguing world full
of myth and mystery make for an enthralling read
*Gail Z. Martin*
I thought it was great, reminding me of Trudi Canavan; it had me
turning pages way into the night, which is not good at my age! What
a mix: immersive worldbuilding, secret societies, a flawed and
hugely likeable protagonist, and awesome magic. There's a lot to
like here, but be warned, this book will seriously damage your
sleep.
*John Gwynne*
Has all the elements to become a modern classic of the genre. It's
essentially a coming-of-age story that breaks out into a
wide-screen fantasy extravaganza with huge stakes
*Independent on Sunday*
For those readers with a yearning for a novel with a Trudi Canavan
/ David Eddings type vibe, but with a contemporary twist, Starborn
may be just the ticket
*SFFWorld.com*
An exciting new high fantasy story . . . the story moves along at a
brisk pace
*SFBook.com*
A genuinely impressive debut, and Lucy Hounsom is definitely one to
watch
