Sora's Quest (The Cat's Eye Chronicles #1)
Sora Fallcrest always dreamed of adventure, but as a member of the nobility, she learned the ways of a Lady instead. Now seventeen, she is expected to choose a husband and marry. She plots to run away, but just as she is stepping out the door, she runs into a mysterious man--and is kidnapped.
Abducted from her manor, Sora is plunged into a world of magical races, arcane jewelry and forgotten lore. She finds herself at the mercy of a dangerous assassin, haunted by an even darker past. She yearns for freedom, but he won't let her go--not when her Cat's Eye necklace is the only thing that can save his life.
But the necklace itself presents a problem. It is an ancient device from the long forgotten War of the Races, and its magic has the ability to steal souls. Can Sora learn to wield its power -- or will the power wield her? (Winner of the SKOW 2006 Best Fantasy Award)
3.5 starsMeh. Everything about this book was a serious meh. But hey, it's free on Amazon so I'm not going to bitch about it! But my biggest problem was that the only character I got attached to was Dorian. I know, I know, that didn't turn out quite as I was hoping to. Crash and Sora were both really decent. I wasn't annoyed with them but they didn't make me feel anything. I just didn't care for them. Burn, on the other hand, is a really great character and I liked him a lot as well. I got really

This and my other reviews can be found at http://amethystbookwyrm.blogspot.co.uk/Sora is not happy that her father is marrying her to a stranger, so she plans to run away. However before she can, her father is murdered and she is kidnaped by the assassin and a thief of a thought long extinct magical race called wolfies. However Sora is wearing a Cats Eye, a necklace that can protect her, which might help her complete her quest. This is a YA fantasy book which is usually my favourite type of book
I once again find myself with an unpopular opinion. 😔 Sora irks me to no end. I normally enjoyed reading about flawed heroine but nothing about her is likable. (view spoiler)[ Sure, her father mostly ignore her but he is a good provider. She lives in comfort if not in luxury. I don't see how she can just leave her father that way without making sure he is safe. She once even mentioned that her father's death is almost trivial. 😱 (hide spoiler)] She is so self-absorbed and whiny. I can't recall
Sora's Quest was such a fun read! During the whole time I was reading this, I felt like I was whisked away to a brand new world with endless possibilities of adventures and wonders.I really liked the world building, especially the mythology and all the different races. I also loved the way how magic was perceived in this book, how it was mysterious and powerful and even dangerous. The only problem for me was that I wish there was more world building! I wanted to actually experience the different
I DID NOT EXPECT THIS!This is such an amazing book! The essence of Fantasy done right! When I started the book, I had a stomach flop moment where i was like "Oh dear, rich girl hating her privileged life...great" but Shreffler made me eat my words and for the first time I didn't mind whatsoever!Sora is an amazing character! She is not an amazingly strong girl, but she has spunk! The right amount of spunk that made you love her as the book progressed. Shreffler made me adore ALL the characters,
