The Click of a Pebble

This was a great coming of age fantasy story. I really enjoyed seeing these young characters struggle to survive in the aftermath of the massacre that leaves them only each other to depend on. Their journey drew me in and had me reading this entire book in one sitting, I'm looking forward to reading more books set in this fascinating world.

I love Greek mythology, it was one of the reasons I was interested in reading it. I'm glad I did as I really enjoyed everything about it.

I received a copy of this from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

I really enjoyed the authors first book, When the Swans Came, so when I saw this on Netgalley, I was very excited. I love the prequel idea and how Zande became who he is. I thought it was well done but a bit too drawn out. I loved the characters, the mythology, the conflicts, and the sense of family.

I’m looking forward to the next instalment of this series and also another one in the previous series.

A book for younger readers, about a boy who loses everything he has. Nur ht finds friends who help him. All is different for him because he belongs to the people of Zeus and a few phantastic things are going to happen to him.

I heard this was a prequel to the book When the Swans Came. I did not know of book one or that this was its prequel.

I love Greek mythology, but I think this is more for younger readers. I did enjoy it.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ebook copy in exchange for an honest review.

This was an interesting fantasy, drawing the reader into a story where destiny waits for no one. Yöst has his entire world turned upside down, and ends up living a much simpler, harder life, forgetting his own destiny is fast approaching. I love how easy it was to get to know Yöst and the others, they have plenty of depth and feel like real people. Spencer has quite a talent for imagery, allowing the story to unfold before the reader's eyes like a movie. I look forward to reading more in this series!
