Warrior of the Wild by Tricia LevensellerMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I received this free eARC novel from Edelweiss. This is my honest review.
Rasmira is one tough chick. She is being groomed to be the next leader of her village, so she's had a harsher life than any other female in her town. Plus she's not respected by her peers. The boys her age are mad that she's good at being a warrior and beating them, when she should be doing more feminine things.
When she is betrayed terribly at her trial to become a woman and a warrior, she has to re-establish her place in the world. She promised her sister that she would make it out of the wild alive and to defeat her mission that was given, impossible as it may seem, or die trying. What she doesn't expect is two guys also in the wild, who failed their warrior trial, and have made a life for themselves in the land where nothing is expected.
The longer Rasmira is with Soren and Iric, the more she starts to BECOME a leader, rather than just be inducted as a leader. But she still has to complete her mission before she can go home. The mysteries slowly become unraveled and Rasmira may just be able to pull it off - but only with the help of her new friends.
Okay, this book was so great! I loved Rasmira. She is a fighter through and through. She never gave up, she was always assisting Soren and Iric, and she was also fighting against the absolute betrayal she left in her village. And let's just mention - that betrayal was god awful! I had to re-read the page over and over again to really comprehend what had happened. That was so messed up and I don't blame Rasmira for being mentally scarred from that experience.
Rasmira is by far a strong willed woman who is on a mission to complete her goal. I have never seen/read about a character that was so determined to prove everyone she can achieve their impossible mission.
The romance between Rasmira and Soren was cute, but I would have been okay without it being in the book, honestly. This was Rasmira's story and she killed it to the very end of the book with her awesomeness!
I'm glad I finally got a chance to read this and Tricia Levenseller is quickly becoming a must have author in my personal library! So I'm going to snatch up as many books as I can from her and enjoy the show!
