She doesn’t speak, but she knows how to express herself. The protagonist of Gallant is Olivia Prior. Schwab and I think it’s time I start on her backlist, too, because I am really loving this author and I found Gallant to be a brilliant and engrossing story. Beyond it is another realm, ancient and magical, which calls to Olivia through her blood… Olivia is permitted to remain, but must follow two rules: don’t go out after dusk, and always stay on the right side of a wall that runs along the estate’s western edge. The estate is empty, save for the servants. But when she arrives, she discovers that the letter she received was several years old. Now, nearing the end of her time there, Olivia receives a letter from an uncle she’s never met, her father’s older brother, summoning her to his estate, a place called Gallant. She grew up at Merilance School for Girls. Her mother vanished all at once, and her father by degrees, and her voice was a thing she never had to start with. Sixteen-year-old Olivia Prior is missing three things: a mother, a father, and a voice. Publication: 8th March 2022 – Titan Books
