This book is so amazing! And from such a brilliant young mind. Just when I think I couldn’t love a book more it surprises me! The story development along with the character development is impeccable. I can’t wait till the next one! I highly recommend this book for anyone who enjoys adventure and likes to get lost in other world, or realms I should say. Kudos to Michael Shank who put so much work into this masterpiece!
