The Demon Girl's Song
Description:
She wanted adventure. She got a demon and a dying world. More than anything, Andín dal Rovi wants to escape her small town life, helping her father in the store, watching her younger brother prepare to take the place at University she’d longed for. Instead of escape, she gets a thousand-year-old demon stuck in her head, and she loses everything – her home, her family and her country. In the quest to regain her identity, she finds herself racing against time to uncover the secrets of her world – and save it from utter annihilation. Bigelow's imagination reigns supreme in this fast-paced story about collapsing empire, clashing civilizations, the misdirection of memory, and matrilineal power, all seen through the eyes of a young woman who just wants one chance to direct her own life before the world around her vanishes. Colorful images, breathtaking landscapes, and a horribly funny internal dialogue make this a very original page-turner for fantasy readers. Must read! - Everett Maroon, Author of The Unintentional Time Traveler I recommend The Demon Girl's Song for the richness of characters, worldbuilding, and the growth of both. - All Our Worlds Bigelow has a delightful hand for crafting such a bold story. The scope of her many-countried land balances nicely with its comprehensive but not overwhelming history. Very much recommended. - West Coast Book Reviews
