![]() The natives and invaders have interbred for so long that sounding the horn would rip the country into shreds. ![]() A legitimate and respected ruler, heir to the combined bloodlines of both Palladian and Ibisian royal families, sits on the Palladian Silver Throne. When she wakes five hundred years later, the war is long over, and her side lost. Medair does find the horn, and makes the fatal mistake of resting in the enchanted vault. We’ve heard this story a million times, right? Well, no, not quite. With her country on the verge of disaster before the invading Ibisians, she goes on a quest to find a legendary horn that, when blown, will repel the invaders. ![]() Medair an Rynstar, herald for the Palladian Empire, is on the losing side. ![]() To become so engrossed in a story that the real world gets put on hold for a few hours, to identify so strongly with a character that I can feel how much it costs her to keep her chin up and her voice steady when she would rather throw herself onto her bed and sob-that’s the magic that keeps me coming back for more. I cried over Andrea K Höst’s noblebright fantasy novel, The Silence of Medair. ![]()
