The fantasy genre is what it has, any assumption can become an interesting story. The main risk is the rambling or the argumentative blunder, justified and / or covered by the fact that everything is possible in the fantastic.
A good pen dedicated to writing novels of this genre knows that, precisely because of this vast terrain open to creation, history must always be sustained in verisilimity (that the chain of events is linked in a natural way) and in the integrity of history ( that there is something interesting to tell as the background of the fantastic trip).
This young author knows what to do and does very well in the field of fantasy at the service of literature. In this book Sortilege, María Zaragoza introduces us to Circe Darcal, a girl with a very particular gift that allows her to perceive reality in a much more complete and complex way. In her ordinary environment, this ability does not seem to be valued, but Circe already senses that her gift must have a specific weight, an application that still eludes her.
When the young woman goes to the city of Ochoa to study, the same city where her parents were murdered, Circe begins to fit pieces of her personal puzzle, from the emotional part to that kind of transcendental plan that concerns her through a gift that yes, it is showing itself with a weighty foundation.
And at that moment Circe will stop being an ordinary girl to become a precious piece, within the board in which an atavistic fight between good and evil unfolds. With Circe still discovering herself, opening up to her potential, events are rushing over her. She will have to do everything on her part to achieve that balance that will make her a special being, capable of making a difference in the eternal dispute that runs parallel to our world.
