"It'd been her secret-her burden-since she fell and hit her head when she was five years old. She'd tried blocking the noise. Tried ignoring it. Nothing helped. And she could never tell anyone. They wouldn't understand. pg.4

This shows how out of place she feels and shows how powerful her telepathy is. It is just kind of sets the scene for the rest of the book.

The author believes that the future my be scary but we don't need to be afraid of it. I believe that the Author wants us to know this because Sophie is constantly wondering about her future. Like how in the very beginning it say she would be one of the best telepathy keepers. Also how everyone isn't sure how she was in the human world and why she is there. But everyone know she is important but nobody knows how important it is. Sophie of course is very overwhelmed by this. But Alden at the end of the book says for her to go and be a normal 13 year old. This shows that no matter how uncertain or scared we might be about the future. We should still be a normal person and have fun.

Letter to the Author

Dear Shannon Messenger, I would like to say that I really enjoyed your book. Now I do have some questions that will probably be answered in the next book of the series. But I would still like to ask them, like how old is Keefe? Is he Sophie's age or Fitz's age. It is very confusing. Also I would like to see some more of Marella I really liked her as a character. But I noticed in the book that we just kept getting less and less of he. One more is is that I really like liked that in Keeper of the Lost Cites you would think you know what is happening next. But instead it would be something else. Well thank you for writing this book and writing a sequel to it.

This shows what it looks like to teleport to where ever they want to go.

I would rate the 4 1/2 stars because I really like the end and the suspense in the middle.*** Like when she gets kidnapped it really puts you on the edge of your seats.**

But it is not 5 stars cause the begging felt boring and uneventful. Yes, there were events but not big enough events where you want to know what happens next.

This shows what the nobility would look like and almost like what the foxfire uniforms look like.

This is what I imagine the people who kidnapped Sophie and Dex looked like. But keep in mind that these people aren't the black swan.
