The Warlock and The Wolf by Delfy Hall is an awe-inspiring, engaging and addictive fantasy novel that not to be missed.This young adult fantasy fiction is the Gold winner of Nautilus Book Awards for Young Adult fiction. (Source: [...]Disclaimer: I received this book from the author in exchange for my honest review.The background of the story is set in The Hague, Netherlands during 17th century of the Dutch Golden Age. Even though I know nothing about the Dutch history prior reading this book, I found the setting of the book very attractive.Orphaned since 8 years old, Mina (Wilhelmina Walraven) is our 18-year-old main female protagonist of this book. She is an apprentice of the stadtholder's naturalist, Pieter Moll, who is actively compiling information about the flora and fauna in The Hague into a compendium. While doing research on the animals, she often protects them from being harmed. Being a scientist, she believes only in facts and evidences, until she meets a strix which attacked her and a life-saving wolf. Since then, she struggles a lot in questioning her own belief and at the same time finding clues to solve the mysteries about her parents' death.This book is very well-written in a sense that the words are flowing smoothly to easily enable me to immerse myself in the world of the book. Often, I found myself unable to stop reading it even though it's time for bed or when I was reading it during lunch break at office.The pace of the story is quite steady with a few tensions involving adventures and dangers in between. These excitements were one of the reasons that makes me continue reading the book.I particularly enjoy reading the interaction between Mina and the animals.
