The Vanished Knight by M Gerrick

[ray315200]

The Vanished Knight is the first book in the War of Six Crowns series by M Gerrick. It is a tale of medieval magic and war. The protagonist is a young orphan girl, Callan who is cursed with dreams and visions by an entity inside her that she cannot control or understand. The entity makes her life unbearable until she becomes the ward of the wealthy Braden family and is sent to an expensive private school with her foster brothers James and Ward. Here the mysteries are slowly revealed and the girl who has lived most of her life as an outsider begins to make friends and discover who she really is. The story unfolds slowly but the personalities, both good and bad are apparent from the start.

I liked The Vanished Knight because I like medieval warfare and internecine strife. The writing is good and the characters and personalities are vivid. Good guys and bad guys stand out and you either love them or hate them but you will never forget them. The story reminds me a lot of the classic struggle between the houses of York and Lancaster in English history. M Gerrick has a knack of showing how epic struggles between warring factions are a lot like the conflict between high school cliques. It’s all about weak and strong personalities but loyalty, friendship and honor matter a lot too. Young people will love The Vanished Knight, especially if they happen to be fans of medieval life and history.
