Heir to Sevenwaters
Juliet Marillier

I wasn't expecting another book about Sevenwaters from my favorite author, but I was definitely thrilled when I heard about it. Coming after Marillier's Sevenwater's Trilogy, Heir to Sevenwaters is a worthy addition. It follows the story of Clodagh, a daughter of the House of Sevenwaters, whose mother is expected to give birth soon. But she is far past the safe age for childbearing, and the household is on edge. And then her newborn son disappears from his chamber, leaving something else in his stead. It is up to Clodagh to right the wrong done to her family.
Romance, adventure, magic, even if you have not read the preceding books, you can enjoy this book.
5/5 stars, recommended for teens 13+
