Death Sworn by Leah Cypess REVIEW


Summary:

Ileni is losing her magic. And that means she's losing everything: Her status as the renegade sorcerers' most powerful rising star. Her purpose in life. The boy she loves. Her home.
Exiled to teach sorcery to the assassins hidden deep within the mountains, she expects no one will ever hear from her again. The last two tutors died within weeks of each other. As Ileni unravels the mystery surrounding their deaths, she'll uncover secrets that have been kept for decades--and she'll find an unexpected ally and dangerous new love.
But even he may not be able to protect her. Not when she's willing to risk EVERYTHING.

My Thoughts:

This book was very interesting, although the beginning was a little boring.
Not only are there surprising plot twists about who the enemy is, but also a surprising cliffhanger.
But the love story seemed as if it was forced into the book . . .
There were also some things that weren't explained at all or weren't explained very well--like why Ileni is losing her magic and how people steal other people's magic as they are dying.
But over all, this book was pretty good.

My Rating: 3 stars
