The Sign of the Owl
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
I loved this book. The flowing writing style makes it a fast and easy read. While the foreshadowing makes some of the plot predictable, the characters more than make up for it. Wint and Jerilyn started off arrogant but I grew to love them. Frederick and Claude are characters you will love to hate. Here's a basic outline of the plot: Wint is drawn into his family's intrigues by his father, the duke. He has to keep the family sword Scamoral from his uncle, Lord Claude, after Claude captures the duke's castle. Wint overcomes various obstacles and meets new friends while on the run. Before the fall of his home, Wint found himself caught between childhood and adulthood, now he must quickly grow more mature to survive. This book had a pleasant ending that didn't leave me hanging. I enjoyed reading it.
