Review by Hannah
This is the third and final book in the Kumari trilogy. After saving the Hidden Kingdom from disaster; goddess-in-training Kumari longs to go back and visit her friends in the World Beyond. But then a message form the gods send her on the most important mission of her life- to avenge her Mamma and save her from limbo. As she heads for New York, Kumari is faced with a problem that seems impossible. Becoming a full goddess means giving up her friends, her freedom and her happiness...
When I first starting reading this book, I wondered what it would be like (this is the first book I'm reading in the Kumari series). I thought it would be a fantasy with lot of things happening that we all know are impossible. But it's nothing like that at all. Kumari is a normal girl (okay, so she is a goddess) but she has normal feelings. She goes through what every girl does - crushing, making hard decisions, balancing friends with family. Kumari also has to deal other things, like goddess training and, most importantly, avenging her Mamma.
I loved this book and the way Kumari is so wise at fourteen! Maybe, she does make some mistakes sometimes (don't we all) but that's what is so great about her. We can all learn a little something from Kumari. I like the relationship between her and Chico, and how strong their love seemed to me. Kumari is a smart, gutsy, heroine who fights for what she believes in. A thrilling, page-turner of a book! I recommend it anyone who loves a good read.
