Fenblood: Logline

Logline is a term used in film and television, and it tells you succinctly, in one or two sentences, what the movie is about. If you've ever read a blurb about a show in TV Guide, or along with the movie listings in the newspaper, then you've read a logline. Admittedly, not all of them are good, probably because they're written by someone who may not even have seen the show they're supposed to describe.

When applied to a novel, a logline corresponds to the back cover text which, hopefully, hooks you and gets you to buy the book. It should tell you enough about the story to grab your interest, but not so much that it reveals the entire plot.

For Fenblood, it goes like this:

Facing a life of bitter isolation, a lonely hunter must overcome the guilt of her role in her parents' deaths to lead an expedition to save the sacred source of her clan's magic from destruction. But when her enemy's defeat proves to be in vain, she must let go of past fears before her team--and her clan's magic--are lost forever.

What do you think? Do you like it? Does it get your attention and make you want to know more about the heroine and her clan?
