Nice storytelling with the mythology and character growth but was deeply disappointed with the ending of the books. Also wanted the storyline a bit more strucured.

This read was really magically crafted to the most detailed thing here.
During the reading, I was able to imagine everything and the style of the book made it somehow lyrical (I think that would be a good name to the way I felt.

Plot
The plot was intriguing and gave the author a lot of possibilities to make this story from most basic ones to this read where everything can happen and for sure I had not expected what will happen there!
There is a child with no name, a girl, and she can speak to and with the ghosts. This only can do shamas! AND NEVER EVER there was a female shaman! Her village is really patriarchal. That's all I'm going to say. There will be a lot of obstacles and coming-of-age for the girl (nameless at the beginning)

Characters
There are a lot f them, but only the most important are concentrated on. They are different and loveable mostly. Characters were doing great in that variable plot. The girl is a character that changed the most from little nameless girl to almost a woman knowing some parts of life yet still clueless when it comes to some parts!

I devoured that read and I'm still in AWE. I hope book 2 will be out SOON!

I wish I could say I got in to this book, but I started reading it and I then got in to a bit of a reading slump, I did have to come back to this book in the future. What I did read of the first couple of chapters I enjoyed so it is something I'll read ahain.

A beautifully crafted story of a female child who is apprenticed to her tribe's shaman (even though no shaman was ever female). Her village was not accepting of a female being trained as a shaman - they felt the most females could be were healers. This apprenticeship marks the beginning of a magical and spiritual journey as well as many trials and tributions for Jovai as the story follows her life. I found the book absolutely fascinating. Jovai communicates with the spirits and with the dead through song, joy, and compassion.

Muze is a new author for me and I look forward to more. I love the way she developed her characters and I developed an emotional attachment to several as the story unfolded. Her world-building was unobtrusive but realistic. What an imagination! I can't wait for the next book in the series.

Thanks to B. Muze and Wittily Writ Publishing through Netgalley for an advance copy.

A very good and fascinating book. It's an interesting travel into acceptance and self-discovery.
I loved the description of the people and their way.
Highly recommended!
Many thanks to Wittily Writ Publishing and Netgalley for this ARC

I'm captivated by this book. This is a powerful story about the journey in the life of a native, the spirit world and living in the material world. I can't wait until the next chapter is Jovai's story is available. #TheShaman'sApprentice #NetGalley
