Chronicle In Favor Of Books Hush: An Irish Princess' Tale (Hush #1)

Melkorka is a princess, the first daughter of a magnificent kingdom in mediæval Ireland -- but all of this is lost the day she is kidnapped and taken aboard a marauding slave ship. Thrown into a world that she has never known, alongside people that her former country's laws regarded as less than human, Melkorka is forced to learn quickly how to survive. Taking a vow of silence, however, she finds herself an object of fascination to her captors and masters, and soon realizes that any power, no matter how little, can make a difference.

Based on an ancient Icelandic saga, award-winning author Donna Jo Napoli has crafted a heartbreaking story of a young girl who must learn to forget all that she knows and carve out a place for herself in a new world -- all without speaking a word.

Comment On Of Books Hush: An Irish Princess' Tale (Hush #1)
Wow. That was a really nice read! The tedious begining was actually worth reading - for the ending. ^.^

Now.... I just want a larger novel of the same story.

It was horrible. The plot was boring and predictable and bland and so were the characters. The ending did not fit the main character's personality and what was happening throughout the novel. It was like the author did not know what to write the ending as, and deciding to end it like the way it was ended.(I won't spoil it). The best thing to compare it to was to when an author ends something with "and she wakes up, and realized it was all a dream", even this was no dream, the ending was just as

Great book. Loved how the main character only spoke in her mind. I would have liked her to find romance but I suppose in a way she did. Not every story has a happy ending.

I read this book while I was in middle or high school, and I was way too young to be reading this. The events that transpire are not appropriate for young teenagers, the themes are way too adult. I don't know who would think it was okay to write this as a YA novel, but it is so not okay. And after reading this, the first book I'd read by this author, and then reading Smile, and then hearing about her novel Beast from my sister, I see what kind of stories the author likes to write and they all

This book is no fairytale and there is no prince coming to save this princess. This novel is very, very well written....sometimes brutal, sometimes beautiful. This novel made me scream in frustation at the heroine's silence, and the characters came and went, never to be seen or heard from again. Nothing is sugar-coated, and even though it is never happy, it is never completely desolate either. This resonant novel of survival in the face of brutality is a must-read.

Hmmm....I liked the idea behind the story. But I felt that this one could have been done so much better. This story should've been told as a regular historical fiction novel and not as youth fiction.We follow Mel, an Irish princess, as she is kidnapped and sold into slavery as a concubine. She's abducted with her sister as they are traveling to safety while their father is attacking some Viking royalty at home. They are to return when they here all is safe.This is told in first person present
