Zoe's Tale

When I realized that this book would be retelling the Lost Colony from a different viewpoint, I feared that it would be boring - along the lines of “I've read this story before... zzz”. Congratulations to the author for keeping it interesting - and for managing to give the viewpoint of a teenage girl as well as he did.

This isn't a spoiler, because it really has nothing to do with the plot. I think I found a minor discrepancy: at the end of the book, Magdy kisses Zoe on the cheek and it is mentioned that it was a remarkable first . . . but he had kissed her on the cheek once before.
