A review by laurla
The Kingdoms of Dust by Amanda Downum

"he wanted to use me. i always knew that. he saw a mage with no family, nowhere to go, and he knew he could turn me into a tool. and i wanted it, wanted to be something useful. something dangerous. not to be scared and alone anymore."

"when do i become myself, and not all these shadows you cast on me?"

"i thought i wanted choices, but choices just make you miserable, dont they?"

"whats wrong? besides the dozen obvious things."
