Review Post: The First Girl Child by Amy Harmon



THE FIRST GIRL CHILD by AMY HARMON

RATING/REVIEW: ☕☕☕☕☕ ( 5 cups for this sweeping epic fantasy full of adventure, magic, a curse, a savior but most of all love that is forever)

The First Girl Child will have you enthralled from the very first page and will sweep you into a tale about a boy and a girl and a destiny foretold in the runes.  Ms. Harmon constantly amazes with her lyrical prose this time centered on a different take on Norse mythology.  It will capture readers' imaginations with its tale of love, sacrifice, and duty and will forever embed the characters of Dagmar, Ghost, Bayr and Alba in their hearts.


Blurb:

From the New York Times bestselling author comes a breathtaking fantasy of a cursed kingdom, warring clans, and unexpected salvation.



Bayr of Saylok, bastard son of a powerful and jealous chieftain, is haunted by the curse once leveled by his dying mother. Bartered, abandoned, and rarely loved, she plagued the land with her words: From this day forward, there will be no daughters in Saylok.

Raised among the Keepers at Temple Hill, Bayr is gifted with inhuman strength. But he’s also blessed with an all-too-human heart that beats with one purpose: to protect Alba, the first girl child born in nearly two decades and the salvation for a country at risk.

Now the fate of Saylok lies with Alba and Bayr, whose bond grows deeper with every whisper of coming chaos. Charged with battling the enemies of their people, both within and without, Bayr is fueled further by the love of a girl who has defied the scourge of Saylok.

What Bayr and Alba don’t know is that they each threaten the king, a greedy man who built his throne on lies, murder, and betrayal. There is only one way to defend their land from the corruption that has overtaken it. By breaking the curse, they could defeat the king…but they could also destroy themselves.
