Interpretation To Books Hawksong (The Kiesha'ra #1)
DANICA SHARDAE IS an avian shapeshifter, and the golden hawk’s form in which she takes to the sky is as natural to her as the human one that graces her on land. The only thing more familiar to her is war: It has raged between her people and the serpiente for so long, no one can remember how the fighting began. As heir to the avian throne, she’ll do anything in her power to stop this war—even accept Zane Cobriana, the terrifying leader of her kind’s greatest enemy, as her pair bond and make the two royal families one.Trust. It is all Zane asks of Danica—and all they ask of their people—but it may be more than she can give.

so.. this was like destiny... I've been wanting to read this for awhile but it's not available to download to Kindle. Went to Barnes & Noble specifically to look for a few of those 'non-kindle' books yesterday... (yes the library would make more sense but whatever).. couldn't find it anywhere. Then, in the completely WRONG section there was a small paperback on the shelf in the wrong direction (someone had obviously misplaced it there)... I moved the book just to see what was behind it andBrimming with magic and mayhem, Hawksong is a fantasy novel that is both intriguing and fable-like in nature. Using its diverse set of characters, the story teaches its readers the importance of establishing peace between all peoples - finding common ground despite differences in culture, beliefs and abilities. With a dash of romance that in no way overpowers the beautifully constructed plot, Hawksong is a mix of many genres. It manages to incorporate them all successfully and in a way that both

The cover...sucks. Just sayin....This book was a book I couldn't put down and read within 24 hours. I really enjoyed the world building, shape shifters. I loved the sworn enemies. I loved the main character Danica.Danica was awesome because she is more "human" than the rest of her Hawk clan, but has been raised to conceal and control any and all emotions. I liked how she allowed those emotions to slip with her friend Rei. I loved that her character was slow to melt toward the Serpentine clan. I

I lost my original review, but this will have to do. I liked the story and the characters, but it had a few pitfalls that marred my enjoyment of the story. Also, it felt like the rough draft of a good story before it gets fleshed out.First of all, it has an incredibly abrupt and rushed ending, which is out of tone with the rest of the story. Very dissatisfying.Second, the love quadrangle was annoying me. Apart from the dalliance that Zane was carrying on, which obviously needed to come to an end
I really enjoyed this one.Hawksong is one of the most underrated fantasy novels, centered on shapeshifters of avian and serpent varieties. This book was published before the Twilight era so thankfully escaped the trope of swooning heroines and brooding heroes. There are two rival clans who are always at war with each other, so to bring peace and call truce one and for all, the avian heir agrees to an arranged marriage with the serpent royalty. Now, that plot may sounds simple enough, but the
