![]() ![]() Constantly plaguing Ana is the fact that she is also an Affinite, in possession of the ability to supernaturally manipulate a specific thing–in her case, blood, an Affinity previously unheard of. Having fled her kingdom after being framed for the murder of her father, she teams up with the criminal Ramson Quicktongue and sets off to find her father’s true murderer, a man she knows by face but not by name. Quick plot summary: Ana is a princess on the run. I suppose we are all heroes in our own eyes, and monsters in the eyes of those who are different. Sorry in advance for the casual tone of this review–it just felt fitting. Some take place in logical order others I just kind of dropped in there. Scattered throughout this review are some quotes I particularly enjoyed. ![]() Though it does have its moments, especially with its handling of some real-world problems in a fantasy context, its overall impression on me was still that of a fairly common, predictable YA fantasy. ![]() For a novel that has inspired such intense feelings from fellow readers–both positive and negative– Blood Heir was a surprisingly lukewarm read for me. ![]()
