ABOUT THE BOOK
Title: Traitor
Author: Megan Curd
Series: Bridger #2
Publication Date: March 17, 2012
Ashlyn never believed in fairy tales until she was in one.
They say ignorance is bliss, but not when you're on a centuries old hit list...and there's a traitor in your midst.
Ashlyn must decide what's most important: trusting the allies she has, or siding with those she thought were enemies. Ashlyn knows old friends can turn on her, and unlikely allies may be the best chance she has to piece her family back together. No matter what her choice, she could lose someone she loves.
And when you don't know who to trust, believe one thing: You can never trust a faerie.
MY REVIEW
Traitor by Megan Curd is like a Halloween haunted house ride,
you never know what it going to pop up around the corner. Sometimes the second
book in a series is great, but does not quite live up to the first book. In
this case, even though Bridger was amazing, Traitor blows it out of the water!!
I just cannot clearly express the emotions or wrap my brain around the twists,
turns, and super mega crazy stuff that went down in Traitor. For those that
have not read Bridger, there may be a few spoilers in this review but they will
be minor. This series focuses on Irish Folklore, specifically Faery mythology. In
the Bridger series, it deals a lot with the Changeling mythology. Evil
creatures sent to steal children away, and replace them with changelings.
In Bridger, Ashlyn discovers, she is not entirely human, and
is thrown into a feud between the ruler of the Changelings, Ankou, and her grandmother.
The events in Traitor are a more tumultuous mix then those of the first book. Ashlyn
is facing a number of tough decisions in this book, and I have a feeling that
the next book in the series is not going to get any easier. Ashlyn just want to
hang out with her new boyfriend and sworn protector, Liam. The problem is there
are still people to save from the clutches of the Ankou, and the only one that
has the gift to crossover into the changeling realm is Ashlyn.
There were so many moments in the book that I thought it
would go one way, and it twisted around like a crazy straw to go a different
direction. There are two points of view in the book, it is mostly told from
Ashlyn’s perceptive but to help show all sides of the story, Ashlyn’s best
friend Reese is also a narrator from time to time. I seriously think I am going
to need a few days to recover from the excitement, and insanity that was
Traitor. I am beyond ecstatic that I read this book, because it is just a marvelous
story.
Ashlyn is strong but venerable as a lead character, and
Megan Curd does an amazing job creating a wonderful adventure for readers to
enjoy. If you have not had the chance to start Bridger, do it, and then quickly
pick up Traitor to experience even more of such a fascinating world filled with
wondrous characters.
