Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Ched28

The Naming is one of those books that you look at and wonder about, and then you pick it up and you can't put it down. It is a story of good versus evil, light and dark, but mostly it is a book about what you find within yourself. Maerad has no family, and a horrible life until Cadvan comes along and saves her.

She learns about the lives of Bards, and her destiny as a child of the house of Pellinor. Alison Croggon tells a story about magic, love, and loss in such a way that keeps you wanting more and more. After you finish this book, you should go find The Riddle because you definitely want to continue the series.
