Cool story! Wasn’t what I usually expect from a fantasy book, but in a good way.

IMO, This is one of the most underrated novels I have read in quite a while.
A few adjectives I'd use to describe this read are, Magical, thrilling, captivating, heartbreaking, adoring and powerful!
I chose to rate 4 stars only because I felt there could have been more depth in a couple parts, and there were a few typo's that made my eye twitch.

Connor has been living on Earth for most of his life, only knowing his foster father John and his best friend and protecter Finn from his home world. One night, everything changes when the King's daughter comes to ask for help after having a vision that her father is in danger. Connor and Finn are sent back to their home world of Zeer. When tragedy befalls the king, Connor steps in to help protect the world from the evil of Prince Herbosh.
This is a faster paced book and has a lot packed into it! Despite not meaning to interfere, Connor begins a revolution against the dark forces of Zeer. There so many different types of supernaturals on both sides of the war! And there were several new ones that I had never heard of before! (I always love coming across new types of supernaturals!)
Connor has been raised by his foster father to fight injustice. Finn is his best friend, who even when he disagrees will still back his friend up. And not only do they protect the realm, they always make sure to keep everyone's spirits up. All the characters are so wonderful and become a family very quickly! Especially Connor and "Larry", who are a sort of fated mates. She is definitely the yin to his yang!
And there are plenty of surprises along the way as well! There was so many things I did not see coming from the evil side and surprises from our heroes as well! A fun fast paced adventure that will keep you reading to find out what will happen next!

It's obvious the author put time and love into this book. The story as a whole was enjoyable and fast-paced. I gave a lower rating because there was an incredible amount of errors in spelling, grammar, punctuation, and tenses. There were also areas that were confusing. All in all, the manuscipt could have used a thorough editing.

I wanted to like this book. I got to chapter 10 and I can honestly say I don’t know what’s going on. This book has a lot of potential I think and I loved that there were so many different creatures, but it moves soo fast that I don’t even know that the story is or how it got where it is. If there was just more detail and story in this book it’d be so good. Unfortunately I decided to DNF.

I do not like any of these characters and I can't stand how immature they all come off despite being in their 20s
