this book sucked.

We meet Elisa on the day of her wedding. Sixteen years old, and marrying a man she's never met. Marrying a king who will crown her Queen. Any girl would be terrified, but Elisa is no ordinary girl. chosen by God on the day of her birth to be the bearer of the Godstone, a stone in her navel filled with power and magic. Every bearer before her has been chosen to fulfill a task, and elisa is no different. Follow her on her incredible journey, to strange lands and even stranger people. To danger and death and beyond. But most of all, watch as Elisa makes her own journey, deep inside herself, to become the woman that she might have been all along. From cowardice to courage. From weak to strong. From theory to reality. Everything will change. You can expect several more books to come after this fantastic debut. And while the writing isn't anything to brag about, the mixture of fantasy and adventure, or religion and romance, makes for a lovely read. Reviewed by Kathryn Taylor
