" Thanks for the honest review Aloha! "
Norbert Zsivicz and 1 other person liked Aloha G's review of Sealed Empire:
Sealed Empire by Norbert Zsivicz
"3.5 stars

Pro: original, compelling characters, kept me guessing

Cons: poor editing/translation, many loose ends, and too many things crammed into a fairly short book which did not allow for a more organic development of storylines and themes

Overall, " Read more of this review »

"This is a wonderfully genre-bending romp packed with creativity and just my kind of mix of weirdness, with some horror to boot. A rather dark and different tale that takes some brave steps outside the usual fantasy norms. "
Sealed Empire by Norbert Zsivicz
"A promising start for this author's debut, but it's marred by faults in the translation, and formatting.

Straight away let me say this this story is good. The premise grabs your attention right from the prologue, and the pacing keeps you reading until" Read more of this review »

Thank you Kay! I wish you a great read!
Sad to hear that. It's a beautiful, but really really difficult language.
However, it's never too late to learn it! :)

Hello there! Sorry for the late replay, I will send you a PM :)


Kay Webb Harrison Dear Norbert,
Thank you for the friend request. I will check out Sealed Empire soon.
My maternal grandparents came to the USA from NE Hungary in the early 1900s. One of my biggest regrets is that I did not think to have my Grandmother Vargo teach me Magyar when we lived close to them. The name was originally Varga, but was changed when the family arrived here. My Grandmother's maiden name was Fodor.
Regards,
Kay
