review 1: I really liked his book. It is the first book I have read by Alex Ball. Jasmyn is a proper fairy tale book with a modern take. I really liked the fact that the book was set in "real life" which stumbles in to a fairy tale, rather than the whole book being mythical and fantastical from start to finish. I was sucked in to the story quiet quickly and loved the swans, swan knights, enchantments and fairyland. I especially loved Kini, the magic horse! I would have given the book 5 stars but for the fact that I had guessed what was going on quiet early on but then perhaps that was what the author intended. I thoroughly entertaining read.
review 2: One day, without warning, Jasmyn's husband Liam dies of an aneurysm. Wrapped up in her grief, Jasmyn is trapped in a worl... mored without color, without flavor, without Liam. But even through the haze of misery she begins to notice strange events—things are not as they should be, and eventually Jasmyn begins to explore the mysteries that have sprung up after her husband's death. The mysteries turn out to be deeper than Jasmyn expects, and she quickly finds herself immersed in a magical story of swans, castles, and bones; of murder and a vicious battle between brothers; of a lost past and a stolen love. less
