Rhapsodic by Laura ThalassaMy rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars
Rhapsodic by Laura Thalassa was an
interesting read. The story focuses on Callypso a siren who when in a bind when
she is younger calls on the help of The Bargainer, a mysterious man who fixes
things, but they come at a price, one that although Callypso is willing to pay
she doesn’t quite understand what it means. We follow her relationship with the
Bargainer as she collects beads on her bracelet waiting for him to collect on
them and we see her grow from a young girl into a young woman. It is only when
she is older that the mysterious man comes back and he is ready to collect, we
just don’t know the reasons why and what hat will mean for Callypso.
This book was unique and different
as we see into the past and the present and Callypso helps the Bargainer and
Fae King with a problem that he is having in his kingdom. The book jumps backwards,
and forwards and we see the relationship build between the two. The book does
leave you with a lot of questions (this is a series) and the story at times is
creepy (when trying to figure out what is happening in the kingdom) and sexual
(the building relationship between Callie and Des) and I don’t want to give too
much away as there is a lot of twist and turns, but boy is this book a page-turner!
If you’ve read any of this authors books before, you know that you are going to be pulled into a wild, mysterious ride and this book was no different. Although a little slow in parts, we really get to know both characters and the world in which they live and are trying to survive. A great read about two soul mates who just needed some time to figure things out whilst trying to figure out answers to questions which are going to be haunting.
