[Maegan · Rating 4 out of 5]

This a unique fantasy novel with such a diverse cast of characters. I thoroughly enjoyed the build up of each character and the plot that entwines them all. The main idea that you can be born with powers specific to a zodiac sign is so intriguing and I think the way the author handled this, with not every person being born with powers and some being stronger than other, was well done. My only con is that sometimes the twists and plot devices were either obvious or a bit stereotypical.
Overall though I loved reading this book and I cannot wait for the second one!!

Astrodiac is a great read. The story is very well written and does a great job of intertwining the story of so many different characters. I got halfway through the book before I knew it. Can't wait for the sequel.
