Molly

Melissa Wright

Welcome to Reading Addiction Blog Tour’s stop for ‘Molly’. This is actually the third post in a series of four reviews of this series.

Molly wants to believe she is special, but she’s part of an army of breeders…

The official blurb:

Molly dreamed her whole life of living in a world of magic… until the day she walked into one. This short story falls between The Frey Saga Book Two: Pieces of Eight and the third book, which is scheduled to release late 2012.

My review:

This little novella was hardly long enough to qualify for a review, but I promised 4 posts, so here’s number 3. I actually quite liked this little story, and it was pleasant to hear some someone other than Frey for a bit.

The gradual idea/picture that is being built here is that half-breeds are more powerful, but that they kill their parents in some way – usually by accident. Molly’s half-breed son should be more powerful than Frey, but it’s hard to tell.

This short story raised more questions than it answers in my opinion. Which is good if you’re trying to draw your readers on for more. I think it’s more polished than the first two books, and I have hopes for the third novel to be more exciting again.
