Soul Sacrifice by Courtney Davis – Review by Santana Hicks

Soul Sacrifice by Courtney Davis
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Let me start by saying that I normally do not like the dystopian genre. Most of the time it is the same thing with just a little bit of difference to call it something else. I tend to stay away from it because of this. I have read a couple of other books from this author and decided to give this book a try regardless of the genre. I am happy I did. This book is like no other dystopian book I have read before and I am all for it. The premise is so different from anything I have ever read. I was hooked from page one.

Ebony is a half soul who is dying of cancer in a world where halflings are treated poorly just because they are missing part of their soul. There are rules and regulations set in place to try to prevent more halflings and the rumoured nosouls. One of the rules being you can only procreate with your soulmate. You need to both be fullsouls to give your child a chance. Ebony wants to find her soul sibling and sacrifice herself to give this woman a chance at a good life but when she meets Lark, she starts questioning everything.

Lark makes his living finding the soul siblings of halflings so they have a chance of becoming whole. Growing up a halfling orphan, he has a soft spot for the lesser beings. When Ebony walks in and wants to hire Lark to find her soul sibling, he discovers that they are soulmates which should be impossible to determine since she only has half of her soul. Lark will stop at nothing to find Ebony’s soul sibling to give him a chance of a life he gave up on. One with his soulmate.

They embark on the journey together, both with the same mission but with totally different outcomes set in mind.
