FRIDAY’S RECOMMENDATION [ 1 ]
Baru pertama kali ikutan Meme Ren yang ini
(^_^), hitung-hitung sekalian berusaha ‘mewujudkan’ beberapa wishlist-ku yang
sudah terposting via WW-nya mbak Astrid dan Wishlist di GR (yang makin
bertambah bukannya berkurang ...)
Ok, untuk edisi perdana kali ini, tentang salah ‘dua’
buku karya Sarah Prineas, yang telah kukenal lewat bukunya Magic Thief Series
(kebetulan sudah diterjemahkan oleh BIP) dan bagus banget, plus ilustrasi isi
juga disertakan (biasanya nih penerbit Indo tidak memasukkan ilustrasi isi
novel fantasi, terutama yang ada copyright-nya tersendiri). Seri yang sudah
terbit ada 3 buku yaitu :
[ book #1 ]
[ book #2 ]
[ book #3 ]
Dan ternyata sang penulis akan melanjutkan
buku ke-empat \(^_^)/ , sambil menunggu bukunya selesai, maka ada seri lainnya
yang tak kalah menarik yaitu ‘Winterling Series’ yang telah terbit buku pertama
dan kedua (menyusul buku ketiga di tahun 2014)
~ WINTERLING ~
by Sarah Prineas [ book #1 ]
Preview :
With her boundless curiosity and spirit, Fer has always felt that
she doesn't belong. She hears the call of the wild wood, of the secrets it
whispers to her. But when her grandmother reveals clues about the disappearance
of her father and his mystical bond to her mother, Fer begins to unlock the
secrets about the parents she never knew. Led to a reflecting pool that
uncovers the Way, Fer finds an enchanting dangerous land.
In this place cloaked in wonder, where pucks transform from boys to horses, Fer feels a strange magical attachment. But with her mother gone, everything has spun out of order and evil has imprisoned the place in ice. Now it is up to Fer to face down the power Mor, who has cruelly taken over this world and it's people, and discover the legacy she carries within.

~ SUMMERKIN ~
by Sarah Prineas [ book #2 ]
Preview :
Down through the Way she fell, feeling
the wind and the pressing darkness, the dizzy thump when she landed on the
bank. She was through. The air felt softer here, the shadows deeper - and the
pull of her connection to the land settled into her bones.
In the Summerlands, time moves slowly, roots grow deeply, and change is not welcomed. But change is needed.
After defeating the wicked Mor and freeing her kin from deadly oaths made to this false ruler, Fer is now the rightful Lady of the land. Yet her people don't know what to make of their new Lady's strange ways, and neither do the High Ones, the rulers of the magical realm, for Fer is an outsider - half human.
To prove herself worthy of the Summerlands crown, Fer is summoned to compete in an epic contest where her strengths and skills will be tested and her loyalties challenged. Can she trust Rook, the puck she calls friend? Can she trust herself? If Fer fails, she will lose her land and the Way will be closed to her forever.
With stunning prose, Sarah Prineas weaves an enchanting adventure in which Fer must decide if she's ready to rule and just how far she'll go to protect her kin.

~ WHY AM I RECOMMENDED THIS
BOOKS ? ~
Gaya penulisan Sarah
merupakan perpaduan fantasi yang berhubungan dengan ‘magic’ dan ‘ancient myth’ dengan
cara menarik, penuh humor serta misteri yang mengundang penasaran dari awal
hingga akhir. Dan sudahkah kukatakan bahwa ‘beliau’ suka sekali dengan “naga”
yang tentunya juga muncul di dalam kisah-kisahnya (^_^) ...boyy, I love Dragon
hohoho.
Nah inilah rekomendasi perdanaku, semoga penerbit yang sama ‘bersedia’
menerbitkan karya lain dari beliau (terjemahan penerbit ini bagus dan enak
untuk dinikmati, hanya satu yang cukup berat, harganya...but for better result
I willing to pay extras, than having ‘worse-translation’)
