Review: Crisp, energetic read!

There is a lot to like about this book. The action is fast, furious, and immediate ( I was drawn in by the first few sentences). The pace is wonderfully quick - it is a 'one sitting' kind of book that never really lags. The characters (particularly the protagonist Chasca) are very engaging. I was in her corner from the beginning and only liked her more as the story went on. And Ms. Heller's writing style is crisp and very edgy. Her words positively pop off of the page. As the title tag line suggests, this book offers a bit of everything: action, romance, and a healthy dose of magic. And it all comes together very well. 'Fate' is a very entertaining read, and I look forward to more from Ms. Heller in the future.
