Legacy by Mazzy J. MarchMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Meeting the Neighbours
This is the second book in the series and carries straight on from the first book. Wendi is getting much stronger and doesn’t need her wheelchair often. She’s still not completely secure about the use of her body, but she’s getting there, the longer she is without the pills.
Another local pack has heard about Wendi and invokes an old treaty that allows them to ‘court’ her whether she likes it or not. She is forced to visit their pack in order to avert a war. She goes with Escher, because it used to be his pack. It’s during this visit she is first introduced to the idea of harems. It’s not the best introduction.
I enjoy these books, but part of me is a little sad that the main character gets better and no longer has a disability. I don’t mean it’s sad that someone gets better, but that it’s so rare to find books about characters with disability that I kind of hate it was a plot device rather than a difficulty the character had to live with. It plays into the idea that if you try hard enough you can find the reason for disability and get better. This isn’t the case in real life very often and I don’t like the attitude to bleed into fiction when I deal with it in real life. Apart from this I still enjoy the books for the character development.
