The Priory of the Orange Tree

We may be small, and we may be young, but we will shake the world for our beliefs

I normally start off my reviews with just one quote but this book is filled with so many that I may indulge in a few more within the rest of my review. Priory of the orange tree is an epic fantasy, something I think a lot of readers fail to realise when picking up this book causing them to expect something it is not. But for me, it was exactly what I expected it to be. I fell in love with long plotted high fantasy books as a kid and this book did not fail to meet those expectations.

When history fails to shed light on the truth, myth creates its own.

Love and fear do strange things to our soul

I do not sleep because I am not only afraid of the monsters at my door, but also of the monsters my own mind can conjure. The ones that live within

No woman should be made to fear that she was not enough

Be silent and learn something
