Reviews

[Kelli · Rating 3 out of 5]

I read this in high school as one of the books on the Literary Club book list. Kieniewicz came to the Woodlands High School and talked to us about the book, too. It was really cool that he did that. I really like sci-fi/fantasy, but at the time, I really couldn't get into this book because his writing style was very different to me. He's a self-published author, and I think this was the first time I had read a self-published book.
