Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for giving me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
4.5 Stars, rounded up.
What a fantastic middle grade this was. Erika Lewis did a great job of pulling in from well-known and even lesser-known Celtic lore in this very akin to Percy Jackson story. While I do feel there were too many characters given too many names, Lewis also provided us a glossary in the back to help with that. The character development of our main character and her fiann was fantastically done. The turmoil of wanting to find out about your unknown family while wanting to protect your found family felt real to me. I adore Kelcie and the development of that friendship with Brona was everything.
This was genuinely one of the better middle grade stories I've read in quite some time.
