Red Sister – Book of the Ancestor 1By Mark LawrenceSnappy ReviewUsually Fantasy is a little slow while establishing the new world, not so here. It’s a small pocket with wider ramifications so you can concentrate on a great new story!Synopsis It’s not until you’re broken that you find your sharpest edge A brilliant new series from the bestselling author of PRINCE OF THORNS. “I was born for killing – the gods made me to ruin” At the Convent of Sweet Mercy young girls are raised to be killers. In a few the old bloods show, gifting talents rarely seen since the tribes beached their ships on Abeth. Sweet Mercy hones its novices’ skills to deadly effect: it takes ten years to educate a Red Sister in the ways of blade and fist. But even the mistresses of sword and shadow don’t truly understand what they have purchased when Nona Grey is brought to their halls as a bloodstained child of eight, falsely accused of murder: guilty of worse.
