Book description

Why read it?

1 author picked Shield of Winter as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Setting aside that which frightens for the greater good is the very definition of an empath, which makes seeing one as a heroine so refreshing. Time and again she turns vulnerabilities into strengths as she falls back on core beliefs to help others.

The story's hero is so much more than a stoic sidekick to the more emotional Ivy. The story beautifully illustrates the depth and complexity of souls on opposite sides of a philosophy who are, in reality, fighting for the same thing.
