A startling, seductive, deliciously dark debut that will shatter your definition of YA fantasy.
Sixteen-year-old Twylla lives in the castle. Although she's engaged to the prince, no one speaks to her. No one even looks at her. Because Twylla isn't a member of the court. She's the executioner.
Goddess-embodied Twylla kills with a single touch. So each week she's taken to the prison and forced to lay her hands on those accused of treason. No one will ever love her. Who could care for a girl with murder in her veins? Even the prince, whose royal blood supposedly makes him immune to her touch, avoids her.
Then a new guard arrives--a boy whose playful smile belies his deadly swordsmanship. And unlike the others, he's able to look past Twylla's executioner robes and see the girl, not the goddess. Yet a treasonous romance is the least of Twylla's problems. The queen has a plan to destroy her enemies--a plan that requires an unthinkable sacrifice. Will Twylla do what it takes to protect her kingdom? Or will she abandon her duty in favor of a doomed love?

Would you try another book from Melinda Salisbury and/or Amy Shiels?
This book would probably appeal to a teenage audience. Some of the ideas (sin eating) and the use of controlled information to manifest power are good but a little flat and somewhat old to an adult. Liked Amy Shields - good modulated narration.Would you recommend The Sin Eater's Daughter to your friends? Why or why not?
I would recommend it to my friends teenagers.What does Amy Shiels bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Loved her beautiful accent - it helped to imagine yourself in a different time or world.Could you see The Sin Eater's Daughter being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?
Not really - there was nothing overly compelling or novel about itSome interesting concepts but too predictable
