Review Rating:

Enid by Eileen Sheehan welcomes readers into a fascinating, magical world filled with dragons, elves, trolls, and other amazing characters. This is a nuanced tale that involves fierce fighters, engaging politics, and enthralling war scenes. Enid vows to avenge the deaths of her parents and punish those behind the destruction of her village. She also finds herself falling for Logan, who happens to be a warrior among her new friends in another village. Unfortunately, Logan seems to have his eyes on rescuing a very beautiful princess with a mysterious past. Meanwhile, the evil plans of the elves unfold as they become more powerful and strike fear in the hearts of anyone who stands in their way. Enid and her new friends must unravel the secrets that can drastically improve their odds of winning the battles they face.

I was captivated by the protagonist's determination to succeed and defeat her enemies. As Enid and her fellow fighters recover from sudden attacks and prepare for more intense battles, they discover chilling secrets about their foes and plot ways to counter the threats they face, despite being close to defeat. The book explores the theme of magic quite brilliantly. I enjoyed reading about the magic that can control dragons and seeing the characters seek ways to gain access to untapped powers. Also, the book offers some exciting romantic scenes. Enid and Logan's buried feelings for each other create an alluring, suspenseful atmosphere that keeps resurfacing tastefully throughout the narrative. Ultimately, any fantasy fan who chooses Enid is making a great choice. Its smart blend of magic, charming characters, and engrossing themes makes it a great choice. I can't wait to read more stories in this skillfully built world created by Eileen Sheehan.
