    About this ebook

    "... well-written and entertaining... Jeni makes for a likeable protagonist that readers will identify with." Publisher's WeeklySneaking out at night, driving without a license, and falling for a guy weren't things fifteen-year-old Jeni expected to do while visiting Lake Itasca, Minnesota with her family. The guy, Ice, turns out to be the local medicine man's apprentice, and when he tells Jeni she's connected to the spirit world, her first instinct is to run. But after Ice's stories of a mythical underwater monster - that Jeni allegedly released - prove true, she realizes it's up to her to contain the beast. Jeni must first convince herself that she's able, and then save the locals, Ice, and ultimately herself.

    Barbara Pietron

    After years in the corporate world, Barbara Pietron found herself with a second chance to decide what she wanted to be when she grew up. Her lifetime love of books and the written word returned one answer: writer. Pietron’s Book One of the Legacy in Legend series, Thunderstone (Scribe Publishing Company, 2013), was a finalist for Indiefab’s 2013 Young Adult Book of the Year by Foreword Reviews, and in 2012 Thunderstone was a quarter-finalist in the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award contest. As such, Barbara won a full manuscript review from Publishers Weekly, which called Thunderstone “…well-written and entertaining,” adding that “… Jeni makes for a likeable protagonist that readers will identify with.” Pietron also wrote a stand-alone novel, Soulshifter (Scribe Publishing Company, 2015), and a prequel to the Legacy in Legend series, Heart of Ice (e-book only, Scribe Publishing Company, 2014). She has been a contributing writer for AAA Living and Family Fun. Find out more at www.barbarapietron.com.

    • 4/5
      ***Copy provided from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review***

      I jumped into this book and didn't put it down until I finished it last night! That being said I do wish it had been more detailed. I wanted to know more of the story, more about Jeni's family powers, more about the Manitou, more about Ice and Nik.

      Jeni is 15yrs old and on a family vacation to spread her grandfather's ashes. She's stuck with her older, annoying cousin, Tyler. At at gas station she buys a figurine that turns out to be a Native American artifact. Ice, an apprenticing medicine man, was sent to buy the statue but Jeni gets to it first. You can see where this is going right? I was pleasantly surprised that this didn't turn into a instlove thing. In fact I wouldn't say there was a lot of romance at all. This book focuses mainly on the statue and powers. Yes, Jeni and Ice like each other but I like that it wasn't the main focus. Sometimes instead of enhancing a story it can take away from it. This book was also very clean and would be good for even the younger side of YA. Quick, good read, just wish it was more descriptive.
