Angie’s Thoughts:
I have read all of P C Cast’s books (the ones she’s written alone and with her daughter) and I have enjoyed them all. This book was one of my faves!
In a world that has been ruined, there are many dangers and very strict rules to protect life. Mari has been taught these rules and many others by her mother Leda. From birth Mari and Leda have kept a secret. A secret that could have both women killed. One thing about secrets. Secrets don’t stay secrets if more than one person knows.
Moon Chosen describes a world of love and loyalty but also a world of distrust, hate, and fear.
I can’t wait for the next book in this series. Great job P.C.! If you love fantasy, animals, and just an amazing read then you have to read Moon Chosen!
