In this land there are different races, each race blood bound to their king/queen. This means they must obey commands made by their rulers, no matter what. The vagabond is not bound to a leader and therefore a threat. Kara is therefore a threat to the leaders, able to go from place to place without consequences.

In the beginning she meets a boy, who doesn't like her much, named Braeden. Braeden wanted to become the vagabond but Kara stumbled upon it first. Now he must keep her close in order to get the grimoire from her. His key to becoming a vagabond.
If you are looking for a new series to start and enjoy a free book, this is for you. You will read the first book and then the next and the next. I highly recommend it for anyone who enjoys YA fantasy.

Anyone who writes usually has authors that they can point at and say "If I can ever be compared with them, I'll be happy." For me, I don't look at the authors who are defined as the classics - Austen, Shelley, etc - I look at Kelley Armstrong. If anyone ever compares anything I've written to something of hers, I think I'll die happy.

Every genre this woman turns her hand to she excels in. From her Women of the Otherworld Urban Fantasy Series, to her YA Darkest Powers, her Sea of Shadows fantasy, the crime fiction of Nadia Stafford, the Cainsville series (oh how I love you and am dying for the final book!) and this, the Casey Duncan series. I swear I haven't read a book by Kelley that I haven't instantly become invested in the storyline and the characters.

City of the Lost is written in Kelley's typical style - honest, detailed without being overloading, intricate and fascinating. Her characters just jump off the page with their realism. There is no perfect person, they are flawed and human. She twists and turns the plot with a skill that I'm in awe of. And just when you think you have it figured out, she throws in a twist you didn't see coming and the ride just keeps on moving.

Can't wat for the next book in this series. Long live Kelley Armstrong!
