Aaarrghh this book...
The back cover and the beginning of the book were very interesting and promising. In medieval Ireland, Princess Melkorka's brother is attacked and left horribly injured. The king plans revenge against the Viking attackers and sends Melkorka away so she'll be safe, but unfortunately, she is kidnapped and taken aboard a Russian slave ship.
In order to save herself from the horrors that surely awaited, Melkorka becomes silent; to the anger, bewilderment, (and sometimes wonder) of her captors, she does not speak a word aloud for the rest of the book.
--SPOILERS AHEAD!--
The book began to drag. I skimmed through passages as I neared the end... and then came the ending. What a terrible disappointment.
No rescue? No escape? She accepts her fate, after she's been taken far from her family, married to a stranger, and raped and impregnated by him?
Talk about unsatisfactory. :( I felt terrible for her throughout the book but still thought there was hope for her to get away...
