Daughter of immortals.
Princess Diana longs to prove herself to her legendary warrior sisters. But when the opportunity finally comes, she throws away her chance at glory and breaks Amazon law—risking exile—to save a mortal. Diana will soon learn that she has rescued no ordinary girl, and that with this single brave act, she may have doomed the world.
Daughter of death.
Alia Keralis just wanted to escape her overprotective brother with a semester at sea. She doesn’t know she is being hunted by people who think her very existence could spark a world war. When a bomb detonates aboard her ship, Alia is rescued by a mysterious girl of extraordinary strength and forced to confront a horrible truth: Alia is a Warbringer—a direct descendant of the infamous Helen of Troy, fated to bring about an age of bloodshed and misery.
Together.
Two girls will face an army of enemies—mortal and divine—determined to either destroy or possess the Warbringer. Tested beyond the bounds of their abilities, Diana and Alia must find a way to unleash hidden strengths and forge an unlikely alliance. Because if they have any hope of saving both their worlds, they will have to stand side by side against the tide of war.
After watching the Wonder Woman movie, I was intrigued to read this book. Now, don’t get me wrong, it is nothing like the movie. I simply thought it would be cool to read a book about Wonder Woman. The plot, the characters, the setting are all different—except for the main island of Amazons.
I honestly don’t know what to think of the book. It was okay. Well, how about I say this? It was not as good as the movie. To me, the book was kind of slow. It took a while for me to get into the plot.
This was me throughout the entire book: “Hmm…” “Oh intriguing!” “What?” “Cool!” “Seriously?” “Awesome!” “Come on.” So, yeah, I have mixed feeling about this book. Sometimes I really liked it, but sometimes I didn’t.
The cover was pretty cool! I will give it 4 stars.
Unfortunately, I have to give this book 3 stars. However, I would recommend to those who like fantasy and mythology. For me, it simply wasn’t my type of book.
