The Knowing
Larriane Wills
Swimming Kangaroo Books
ISBN: 1-934041-12-2
Fiction, Fantasy
Reviewed by Dr. Tami Brady

It seems so very hard to find really good fantasy these days. Lately every promising title that I pick up is either some sort of fictional take off on The Da Vinci Code or the characters somehow end up being vampires. Both subgenres are so overdone, usually badly. I had almost given up hope until I found The Knowing.

The Knowing has the feel of the traditional fantasy that I had been craving and yet manages to keep the material fresh. The reader learns about the characters as the book progresses but is given little tidbits of information so that they can speculate what the true story is behind Garran’s mysterious past; whether the woman pretending to be the princess is really Fayahstella or not; and whether Garran and Fayahstella are brother and sister or a potential couple.

Completely enjoyable. I have already recommended this one to my friends and family.
