Life in the Enclave was much slower than in the cities, especially
since Elves took their time because they have plenty of it; however,
something seems to have happened. For once, the people of the
Enclave seemed to be in a hurry. After the Rebellion, most Seeker
Families were killed and in the Thrudore Enclave, only Sellusa’s
family, the Natanus family, survived. Seekers were strong,
courageous, and loyal and they arose in times of need. Selli has the
blood of an adventurer in her and she was determined to carry out
her duties and avenge her father too. She was summoned by Lady
T’Serra because of urgent business – she found out that children
have been going missing for the past two weeks. They have no idea
who was behind this and it is up to her to look into the matter.
Where will her adventures lead her to? What truths will she discover
along the way? Read Whispers of the Gone by Julie Hodgson to find
out!
Whispers of the Gone is a young adult fantasy book by Julie
Hodgson and illustrated by Mona Lena. Selli is a determined and
brave fifteen-year-old who carries a heavy legacy on her shoulder
as the last remaining Samúð in Haltasia. Her quest to find the
missing children uncovered surprising truths and the mission was
fraught with danger. Her distinctive character captured my
attention from the get-go. I was drawn deeper into the story
because of Hodgson’s amazing ability to capture the reader’s
interest from the very first page and I was also hooked by the
substantial plot and surprising twists along the way. The tale is
filled with a healthy dose of adventure, conflict, mystery, and so
much more! Hodgson created a unique world through detailed
world-building and I couldn’t wait to explore every crevice of it as I
read Selli’s story! Mona Lena’s illustrations of the characters and
events add vision to this world and help the story come to life. The
art adds a bright perspective to the already fantastic and
engrossing tale. Fantastic work!
