If you’re looking for a book that brings together the best
elements of Sarah J. Maas and Patricia Briggs in style and story, and the
intensity of the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy or the Harry Potter heptalogy,
you need look no further than Uprooted.
Does that sound overblown? Hey, if it gets you to read this book, my work here
is done.
Okay, okay, not exactly done, calm down.
Anyone planning to pick up Uprooted should have a fair idea of what to expect. When you read
its summary, you might get a Beauty-and-the-Beast vibe, what with the
arrangement between a humble village and a powerful figure called The Dragon,
who ensures the villagers’ survival in exchange for one local girl every ten
years. You wouldn’t be wrong to
notice the similarity, but it’s a bit
more complicated than that.
