Huntress is set in the same world as Ash, but it takes place many centuries earlier. There are some significant cultural differences between the time periods, so if you liked Huntress, but didn't like the people or cultures, read Ash.
Alright, Huntress starts off as a person seeing a beach of ice and seeing a girl, Kaede rowing away from the islang/peninsula the person is standing on and his/her's hearts breaks because he/she realizes that he/she loves the girl. Then Kaede is planting seed for growing. She is already way past her usual time for planting seeds because usually, people plant seeds in spring or summer, right? Well, this year, summer didn't come and the sun hasn't shown for months. People are starving and food supplies are running low. Kaede is suddenly asked (more like commanded) to go to the Council of Sages, a group of sage/magician/witch people that can use magic but, like nuns, cannon marry to someone. When she got to the Council of Sages, many people where already there: Maire Morighan, the Mistress of the Academy, Sister Nara, Sister Ailan, Sister Yuna, King Cai, Lord Raiden (the King's chancellor), and a girl that Kaede remembered had private lessons with Sister Ailan. Suddenly Kaede remembered the name: Taisin
Then the King spoke, "I have had an invitation to meet the Fairy Queen." Kaede asked, "What does that have to do with me?" and then Taisin spoke. "I had a vision about you."
Well, what happens next? A love romance? An action-packed book?
I liked this book because it is weird and different because it is about a sage falling in love with a girl and sages cannot fall in love with anyone, and Taisin is one of the best sages. Also it is one of those books where people go on an adventure to rescue or save something. If you enjoy those books, then you'll also enjoy this one. Also, the end has a small twist of plot, which always makes books interesting.
