Aslaug is not like the other teenagers; she grew up in isolation and
knows nothing about real life, technology or what the teenagers do. She
only knows what her mother teaches her about religion and ancients
worlds, and especially about plants.
But then her mother dies, and she is a suspect in her death None of the
things she learned for her mother could help her to understand what is
going to happen now.
But she will found her way back to the only family she has, the only
thing is that she will find more than a place to stay, shell find just
questions and more questions, not only about her, but about her mother
and her father. And those questions do not have logic answers, the ones
she is used to.

Madapple is a different story about life, human nature, faith, religion
and miracles. The world building is really good, and the characters are
very complex, besides, the plot is interesting and original.
It has a lot on information about plants, and mythology, thing I liked
very much.

I got to say it was a little bit difficult to read at first, because it
has a different kind of language, but then I decided to read it slowly
in order to catch everything, because the story is complex.
The development of the story is very surprising and it will keep you
thinking about whats happening. If you like books with history,
religion and some mystery, this is definitely a must read.
