RuneMarks
Maddy Smith is a lonely and strange girl, blamed for everything that goes wrong in her village, all because of the rusty marking on her hand that the villagers call a "Witch's Ruin" a sign that she is strange and dangerous, lonely, evil, stubborn... and worst of all, magic. This is a self fullfilling prophesy, as Maddy, shunned and taunted never makes any friends. Until, that is, she meets One-Eye, a strange man with an eyepatch, who tells her she is magic, and shows her how to cast Runes, and speak incantations, and use Glamour. He tells her stories of the Gods, and the old days, before the end of the world. And one day, she goes down into the World Below, and tings get even more magical than before.
This book is a brilliant story woven with old legends, and yet is something new and fresh.
9/10
