The Waterborn

In his first novel, Keyes weaves an epic fantasy world of myth and magic reminiscent of Terry Brooks's work. This coming-of-age adventure finds Hezli, a teenage imperial princess, devouring books to help her locate her missing favorite cousin, and Perkar, a chieftain's son, sworn to slay the River God whose power flows in Hezli's blood. Highly recommended for fantasy collections.
