A Time to Speak by Nadine Brandes
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
A Time to Speak picks up directly after the shocking end of A Time to Die. Parvin’s recent adventure has changed her, but now she is being called to change the world. Her eyes are open to the corruption and evil that leads her world. Her quest takes her to the high city to challenge the council, but these things never go according to plan. Parvin soon finds herself, carted off like animals. This time her adventure will take her to frozen wastelands and beyond.
It was fun seeing Parvin transition from a character undergoing a transformation over the course of the first book, into someone with a greater destiny. She no longer lives just for herself. She is called to speak – but will anybody listen?
Nadine Brandes’s Out of Time books speak to me and challenge me in a way that few fiction books do. Not only are they gripping adventures, but they make me think. While the first book challenged me to make my life count, this one challenged me with Parvin’s example of faith and bravery. It’s one thing to say you trust God. It’s another to put everything on the line and place yourself in his hands.
Once again this book has a strong climax with an ending that will have you clamouring for book 3.
