Review by V-20 -- The Prodigy Slave, Book One: Journey t...
[Following is a volunteer review of "The Prodigy Slave, Book One: Journey to Winter Garden" by Londyn Skye.]
If you are interested in stories about the life of a slave, consider reading this book by Londyn Skye entitled The Prodigy Slave, Book One: Journey to Winter Garden. Here's an overview of this historical romance book.
Jesse Adams, a wealthy man, purchased Lily to work alongside his ailing house slave, whom everyone called Auntie. The Adamses had three sons; Jesse Roscoe Junior, the eldest whom they all called J.R.; Jacob, the middle child; and their youngest, James. It is the mission of Auntie before passing away to teach Lily how to run the Adams household. A few years after teaching her, Auntie finally found her way to rest in peace. Lily was left to handle the needs of the family alone. It was an overwhelming burden for a thirteen-year-old, but she grasps the grueling responsibilities with the grace of someone three times her age.
The youngest son, James Adams, secretly had a crush on Lily since they were young. As time passes by, the two grew closer without James' father and brothers knowing about it. They became best friends. Sadly, all good things have an ending. In a snap, James and Lily were not best friends anymore. James stopped talking and playing with her. It broke Lily's heart because all she had in her life was James. Unexpectedly, Lily found a way to escape reality by playing a particular instrument. Can you guess what this instrument would be? Will Lily experience the freedom a person deserves to have? Try reading this book to know more about Lily and how her life would turn out to be.
The author's style of writing is magnificent. I like how she tells the back story and brings it to the present smoothly. The storyline is well-ordered. I appreciate how the author provided slave codes and facts in every chapter. I found this book professionally edited with great characters. Each of them has their own back story that helps the readers to recognize them easily.
This book teaches about love, humbleness, and respect. It made me cry in more than one scene. Looking back, I cannot think of a single thing I hate about this book. The author made me feel what the main character is feeling in every scene. Warning for young readers, this book has detailed erotic scenes which may be unpleasant to read to some people. There were no errors, but I found profanity words present. This book will appeal to readers who enjoy the story of a slave and curious about their life.
Overall, I would rate this book 4 out of 4 stars since I found it professionally written. I like the author's style of writing and how she presents every character in the book. The ending is also perfect which makes me want to read the next book.
