My rating: <a href=”https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5181720432″>4 of 5 stars</a><br /><br />
The authors have created a completely immersive and all-encompassing world, where after the poles have shifted slightly certain people develop talents, those people are classified the Unhidden. Mostly made up in people with a natural belief in the older ways and those who’s histories are based in magic.<br />It does bring to the forefront that which many of us understand, that of prejudice and how as a human race those seen as different are often targeted before understanding has taken place.<br />This book is the first in the series and I found the characters really well written and their relationships grown and change as the story develops. Some relationships start to bud as we find the areas the Unhidden have settled in around Ireland are attacked by the Pure Earther Movement and others. <br />There is a traitor in their mist, one who has familiar bonds to another Unhidden still finding her strengths. Their healer needs to fight constantly to do her best for those under the protection of PHAE and those in her family. <br />I am going straight onto book 2<br />
