Review of 'The bird and the sword' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

It is a great joy to know that a book can still make you feel all the great things it did the first time you read it. It is not always the case with books I rated high the first time around. There are some that I rate high again because of the memories they bring up of all the fun I had reading it or remind me of simpler times. It is very rare indeed to find a story that you still love, or one that makes you see further meaning in (whether the writer intended to or not).

I absolutely loved Lark and though the ending was a little rushed I think what stays with me is the story and the world built by Amy Harmon.
