Wraith
A ZoE Martinique Investigation #1
I
have found that Phaedra has a great knack for writing
fantasy stories. She has several out (most after Wraith-
I apologize for arriving so late to the party) that
if all are like Wraith, you will be in store
for some good reading.
Wraith
chronicles the life and times of Zoe as she uses supernatural
abilities to get what she needs and then runs into trouble
she could not have foreseen. The entire story is from
her perspective. At first I thought this made the story
one dimensional, yet as I read, the story takes shapes
quite nicely. Spoiler alert, towards the end, each chapter
becomes a cliff hanger all by itself. Putting it down
is pretty tough sometimes.
Then
there is Zoe herself. Zoe has unique abilities, but
also the knack for making poor decisions. If she turns
right, she is in the clear. If she turns left, she is
in hot water. Somehow she manages to always turn left.
It is hard to see her always get in over her head, yet
this quality she has also makes her more enduring. Even
fantasy characters have there flaws.
There
is also the supporting cast. Her mother as well as two
guys who live with her mom. They help keep a good ebon
flow of dialogue as well as keep Zoe alive.
Anyone
interested in fantasy reading, I recommend reading Wraith.
