The first word that came to mind when I finished this book was WOW. I cannot believe this is A.S. Peterson's first book. Other words that aptly describe this book: adventurous, violent, emotional, action-packed, moving, and thrilling. This book is set in the years leading up to and during the beginning of the American Revolution, so it is categorized as historical fiction. It's not based on a true story, but it's definitely some fabulous adventure fiction based in a historical setting, with inspiration pulled from a number of historical people, places, and events, including the Georgia War Woman (Nancy Hart) and the first orphanage in colonial America located in Ebenezer, Georgia (where the book begins).
THE FIDDLER'S GUN strikes me as a unique coming-of-age story. Fin may wish she were a boy, but once she gets out into the world and grabs ahold of her own destiny she begins to find that being herself is even better. The book ends at kind of a cliffhanger, so I'm eagerly looking forward to the release of FIDDLER'S GREEN.
