Legend of Kawilara is an adult fiction novel that explores the cycles of violence against women and the lives it affects. Janey loses everything she has ever known in one day when the Black Guards execute the aunt who raised her, after making a fateful promise to her aunt Olivia that she would never give up. She finds herself alone until she is rescued by chance by a witch rescuer named Shane and taken to a witch refugee camp. Soon, Janey is helping rescue tortured witches from the infamous Warbeck prison and learning the truth behind her own past from Jill, an old friend of her aunt’s. Janey discovers the legacy her aunt left in helping create the series of underground tunnels and portals that saves the lives of women and children everyday right under the noses of the Black Guards. Through the agony of torture and bloodshed she is shown the humanity of love and kindness; how it is the key to breaking the cycles of hatred and violence. Even in Billy Eagle, the man she loves, there is a child who never got to grow up, his own innocence shattered after witnessing the death of his mother as a seven year old. They both find themselves stranded, with only each other to count on in spite of their reckless flaws.

Through the despair and hopelessness that seems to hang like a black cloud over Nevermore, Janey needs to find a way to survive and live on through her aunt’s lasting and impacting legacy, to find the day when the two words would be the one thing to bring down the Black Guards… Never again.

Review by: Maghon Thomas on March 26, 2012 :
Ok, so first I gotta give my shout out thanks to the author and books4tomorrow for giving me a copy to read for reviews. At first, because of the quite tragic, and violent beginning, I was a little worried about liking it. The character backgrounds and setting are well described and this whole book is very well worded and explained. It's about witches and the horrible mad men who hunt them, literally for pleasure!

I can honestly say, now that I'm done, I loved this book, even if I cringed, and cried, and screamed at it! If you are weak stomached or cannot handle brutal torture, ya may wanna be ware, but this book is a perfect tale for abused women, who learn how to fight back and stand up for themselves! And they are witches :)

Janey, the main character has literally every bad thing happen to her but she learns to fight for what's right, no matter if it cost her life, and to risk her life to save others! She learns to never give up, even though she really wants to, and in the process gains some great friends, and terrible enemies, and even learns that she's beautiful with all her scars, both inside and out. She also helps save a whole community in this process!

I love Kitna ( you gotta read to find out who these names are) and Jill and Shane! You can't help but love the good guys in this book, and totally hate and loathe the bad guys! You start cheering for the innocent and want to stab the evil bastards who take away that innocence!

As for the magical part of the book, you start learning how awesome it is to have powers and how they work. You want everyone in real life to learn how to do these cool things!

I believe this is going to be a series that will continue ( I think) and I cannot wait for the next book to see where it can go! So get yourself a copy a check it out!!!
