City of Swords by Mary Hoffman

5.0

The newest book in the Stravaganza series is just as amazing as the rest of them. I have been drawn into this alternate version of Italy known as Talia and so wish that I could find my own talisman so I could stravagate back and be a part of it all. I honestly could not put this book down, and now that I am finished I find myself dreaming of the next one, and I truly hope that there will be a seventh book. There are 12 city-states in Talia and each book focuses on a different one so there could be 12 books, and I hope that becomes reality.
