Publisher's summary

In the "Strength" edition, the narrative unfolds with the poignant tale of a young girl whose life takes a drastic turn after her mother's tragic murder, forcing her into a harrowing journey of self-discovery and vengeance. Cast away from the safety of her home, the protagonist finds herself propelled into the wilderness, seeking refuge amidst the unknown.

The story takes an intriguing twist when the young girl awakens in a mysterious cave, a place that becomes the unexpected setting for her transformation. Here, under the guidance of a Lycan, she begins to cultivate essential survival skills and hones her ability to track, setting the stage for a journey marked by resilience and self-empowerment.

As time passes, the protagonist, named Ainsley, emerges from her secluded training grounds and embarks on a solo quest to unravel the mystery behind her mother's murder. Fuelled by a deep-seated determination, she navigates a world fraught with danger and intrigue, determined to confront the malevolent force that shattered her world.

The narrative promises an exploration of the protagonist's growth as she grapples with the challenges of the wilderness, developing not only physical prowess but also an indomitable strength of character. Ainsley's pursuit of her mother's killer takes her through uncharted territories, both external and internal, revealing facets of herself that she might not have discovered otherwise.

Beyond the quest for justice lies a realm of unimaginable wonders and perils, teasing the listener with the anticipation of what lies ahead. The author weaves a tapestry of suspense and revelation, crafting a tale that transcends the boundaries of a mere revenge story. Ainsley's journey becomes a metaphor for the strength found within, a force that propels her forward even when faced with seemingly insurmountable odds.

Ainsley's Quest

I enjoyed this short novella as an introduction to the character of Ainsley. The story is well written and with the narrative of Jessica Weyman very believable. I highly recommend this introduction series. I am voluntarily leaving my honest unbiased review for this book.
