Try “Shadowbridge”–a new fantasy

Attracted by the words ’storyteller’ and ‘puppeteer’ I tried a brand new fantasy by Geoffrey Frost called “Shadowbridge” and was not disappointed. I used to tell lots of stories and create and perform puppet shows in my job as a children’s librarian so novels with those kinds of characters always intrigue me. Leodora travels a world made of impossibly complex bridges which tower above endless seas. As she gathers stories which she then transforms into puppet shows, the young woman who is escaping a violent past, is accompanied by her drunk of a manager and a young musician who has been touched by a god. Vibrant characters and an intiguing setting make me eager for the promised sequel.
