i really enjoyed the beginning i'd say there's quite a lull in the middle where i was kind of urging the story to give me more but then emmerdale returns to the ending which is very engaging and it's it has a good climactic conclusion i would say and it's worth checking out
Daughter of Redwinter (2022)
Those who see the dead soon join them. From the author of the critically-acclaimed Blackwing trilogy comes Ed McDonald's Daughter of Redwinter, the first of a brilliant fantasy series about how one choice can change a universe. Raine can see—and speak—to the dead, a gift that comes with a death sentence. All her life she has hidden, lied, and run to save her skin, and she’s made some spectacularly bad choices along the way. But it is a rare act of kindness—rescuing an injured woman in the snow—that becomes the most dangerous decision Raine has ever made. Because the woman is fleeing from Redwinter, the fortress-monastery of the Draoihn, warrior magicians who answer to no king, and who will stop at nothing to reclaim what she’s stolen. A battle, a betrayal, and a horrific revelation force Raine to enter the citadel and live among the Draoihn. She soon finds that her secret ability could be the key to saving an entire nation. Though she might have to die to make it happen . . . At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
what i will say about this book is that it was all right but i really didn't connect with the story the characters or the world building i found them just to be average
this one was very mixed for me because i thought it had a very strong hook at the beginning and also a fairly strong ending but that middle portion was just not enjoyable to me
