Review of The Prodigy Slave, Book One: Journey to Winter Garden
[Following is an official OnlineBookClub.org review of "The Prodigy Slave, Book One: Journey to Winter Garden" by Londyn Skye.]
The Prodigy Slave, Book One: Journey to Winter Garden by Londyn Skye is a romance novel based in the mid-1800s in the midst of slavery. The author immediately draws in the reader with the captivating story of Lily, a young mixed-race slave girl who is ripped away from her mother and sold by her own father. Lily befriends the youngest of her new master’s children, James. As James and Lily’s friendship grows, Jesse, James’ father, immediately puts an end to it. He instructs James to treat Lily as a slave, and nothing more.
James spends six years away at a university training to become a doctor. Upon his return, he discovers that Lily has a hidden talent. She can play the piano better than anyone he has ever heard. The only problem is that Lily is forbidden to even touch the piano, so how could she have learned to play? James is infuriated to find Lily playing his mother's piano and determines that she must be punished. His punishment will ultimately change the course of Lily’s life. Will Lily ever play the piano again?
I was completely captivated by this story. The characters are interesting, and the storyline is truly gripping. I could not put this book down. I was eager to devour every page and found myself feeling a mix of emotions as I was shocked by unexpected events throughout the story. This book proved to be unpredictable, infuriating, and glorious.
I rate this book five out of five stars. This book was exceptionally well edited. I encountered not a single error. I was enticed from the very beginning and truly felt transported back in time. The character descriptions were phenomenal, and the storyline kept me guessing throughout the entire book. There is nothing I would change about this book.
I would recommend this book to a mature audience because of the vulgar language and anyone interested in romance novels and the slave era.
