Seeker is an interesting young adult fantasy with a strong female character. She is not flawless, but her faults are human and make her real. The writing flows well and the pace is fairly quick-moving. Once things really kick into gear (and it doesn't take long), everything just flies. There were a few times when a phrase as written seemed a bit jarring and unnatural for what the story was, but it was brief and did not affect the overall story at all.
It's obvious with the ending that this is the first in a series, though I'm not sure how many will be coming. I would guess a trilogy, but I'm not certain. There is a sense of closure for this book, but there is also a knowledge that the world is, as yet, incomplete. It's been a while since I had to force myself to put down a book so I could go to bed, as was the case here. I look forward to the sequel, due Spring of 2016.
