Review:
A stunning debut novel about a
girl who is half dragon, half human, and wholly herself.
As the only heir to the throne,
Marni should have been surrounded by wealth and privilege, not living in exile—but
now the time has come when she must choose between claiming her birthright as
princess of a realm whose king wants her dead, and life with the father she has
never known: a wild dragon who is sending his magical woods to capture her.
At a young age, I was a
connoisseur of the Fantasy genre, reinforced by my wild imagination and an
addiction to Harry Potter. I was always in search for that 'magical feel' where
I can be lost in another world filled with endless possibilities.
A Creature of Moonlight was that
fix I was looking for. Each word was magic onto itself. Rebecca Hahn wove a
story so vivid that it felt like I was seeing through the eyes of Marni, as she
played with the sprites, had conversations with the Lady of the Forest and
shivered in awe against the presence of the mighty dragon.
The book is mostly about choices.
How the world calls out to individuals to explore and be lost in the wonders.
It is about how some got lost exploring those wonders, forgetting those they
left behind and becoming controlled by their desires. But every once in a while
there were those like Marni, who went out to see those wonders, but came back
better and who never forgot what she wanted or who she was.
It tells a story about how a girl
with her heart set after something and who has the courage to follow it
through, can never be stop even if you’re a great big dragon.
The story is warm to the heart,
made for reading on those cold, rainy nights when you decided to put down your
phone, dim the lights a little and leave only a reading lamp on.
