2 posts | 4 read | 1 reading | 4 to read
In Earth's battle-ridden future, humans have evolved. Those with extraordinary skills rise to power and fame. Those without live in poverty. Sixteen-year-old Willow Kent believed she was normal. But when a genetically-advanced military officer shows up in her village and questions her identity, long-buried secrets begin to emerge. With remarkable skills and a shocking genetic code the Core and its enemies will do anything to obtain, Willow suddenly finds the freedom she craves slipping through her fingers. Greed, corruption, and genetic tampering threaten every aspect of her existence as she's thrust, unwilling, into the sophisticated culture of the elite Core city. To ensure peace, she must leave the past behind, marry a man she's never met, and submit to the authority of a relentless officer with a hidden agenda of his own. Her life has become a dangerous game. How much will she sacrifice in order to win?

It‘s amazing that C.L. Denault gives justice to the fantasy aspect of her book and I‘m really looking forward more of that on the second installment. I will definitely follow this author‘s novel. Gambit, from the title, is a move, where everyone takes risking decision, and it is entirely what our protagonist is. A tigress, a fierce and bold lady, an intelligent and gorgeous woman whose life is about to change.

Netgalley review! I saw this, and just fell in love with the cover. The story has magical prodigies, mutant ritters and other human modification, and crazy advanced technology. Character development was believable. Willow starts of as an immature brat, but there seems to be hope she will be a strong female lead. However, not sold with the romance, and that might break the story for me. Not a bad read, though I wouldn't call it stellar. 3.5/5.
