Wonderful! I had always wondered about why the guy didn't come rescue Maid Maleen. But it never occurred to me to wonder what happened to the maid. And the time in the Tower - perfect! Just how I imagined it. Just finished it last night. Wonderful! I had always wondered about why the guy didn’t come rescue Maid Maleen.

I thought that this book was great. It was such a different plot line what with the girl and her maid being locked in a tower for seven years because she refused to marry a villent, scary, and bizzare lord who has an interesting counter life that he showed only her. I loved the maid though. I thought that the girl who was put into the tower was a scared girl who was tramatized but never tried to get past that, while her maid was a strong girl who had songs to cure many illnesses and wasn't afraid to step up and do the right thing. I loved this book and it's strong female character. Attention: Spolier alert!
