"Curse" is a wonderfully imaginative and engaging coming-of-age novel that mixes science fiction, fantasy and action/adventure into one spellbinding tale. Ms. Furse does a fantastic job of weaving a plot that manages to keeper you on your toes and eagerly flipping to the next page as teenager Nell tries to unravel the mystery of her of family legacy and that of the far reaching destiny that she may not be prepared for. Nell is the type of character that resonates with the reader; she's authentic, flush with personality and makes you care about her as her life is turned on its axis. From the imaginative world Nell and Sam find themselves in to the fully fleshed-out characters and story, "Curse" was an entertaining novel that I couldn't put down. It was a promising start for the Wexkia Trilogy and for Dale Furse as an author, I will be eagerly awaiting the next book in the series.
