Child of Light by Terry Brooks

Auris has been in the goblin prison since she was 15. Now at age 19, she and a group of friends are about to age out of the children's prison and into the much worse adult prison so they plan an escape for which Auris is the only survivor.  She's been wandering the desert for days and about to be recaptured when she's rescued by a strange being claiming to be fae. And he claims that she is also fae which is crazy because she looks and acts completely human.  But she has no memory of her former life before the prison and an instant ability with fae weapons. When she's taken to Viridian Deep, the home of the forest Sylvan, she's finds a home and a future she kind for... if only she could solve the mystery of her past. 
This is my first Terry Brooks novel.  I love his ability to create a world that I can escape to through the pages. The world-building was excellent,  the characters were realistic and relatable, I just loved it!
I received an advance reader copy of this book through NetGalley. The views and opinions expressed in this review are completely my own and given voluntarily.
