Daugther of the sea Mira Zamin.
The next book I have for you today is...
(Dum-role)
Daugther of the sea by Mira Zamin.
Don't let the cover fool you this story is no old lady sob story this is a magical , magical beautiful heart tugging novel.
I was enchanted from the first page. The sophisticated style it was written in it was so delicate yet strong. So soft but it punched you in the stomach. I loved this story.
I read this book by accident if you must know but I am so glad I did.
Calista, a young Roman aristocrat is forced to marry a man old enough to be her grandfather. Not only does Calista not trust this man but she fears that he is hiding something , something very dark and disturbing.
One night that gave nothing away that would have indicated it could change their lives a war breaks out and from a sophisticated lady with numerous slaves, Calista and her family are dumped at the bottom of the foodchain.
Will Calista be able to escape ? What is it about the boy at the beach that looks so familiar? What does the strange dreams mean that she keeps having about a city stored under the sea?
Themes :
Love VS Hate
Jealousy VS Loyalty
Rich VS Poor
Power VS Family
Something awesome :
In this book there are greek gods. So you get to live in the Greek culture.
What I didn't like :
Some characters were too weak.
The ending left a few loose ends.
Recommendations :
Anybody who loves fantasy , Greek fables , and who has conspiracy theories of what happened to Atlantis...
Rate :
(****) Four stars :)
The ending was not strong enough but I just loved the vocabulary in this book I wish this book's speech was the nature of my tongue!
Dive into the mystery of Greek legends.
