This is an excellent story written much better than many of the mainstream fantasy stories you will read. The characters are more real in 40 pages than many are in 300. Lisa Hofmann is an author I will explore further. Highly recommended to fantasy readers.

I absolutely loved this short story. I don't often get quite so hooked with shorter stories but this was brilliant. A highly recommended read!

An engaging tale of love and sacrifice
Amberflame is a short medieval tale of forbidden love, secrets, and a fearsome dragon. Lisa Hofmann paints a great visual of a village under duress during a harsh winter. We follow Willa’s secret romance, but is this her only secret? And are others harbouring equally dark truths? A lovely short story that I read in one sitting. Highly recommended.

Yes, this book is very magical. It brings the reader to be transported to a whole new world of fantasy. There was a real balance of darkness and realm of fantasy with lightness and a twinge of humor. Hofmann brought the characters to life, as she penned this amazing story and created her characters. I was entranced by this story. The writing was fast-paced. This book is a real page-turner. You won’t want to put it down, so clear your schedule, get comfortable and settle in for a treat. I received a copy of this novel through BookFunnel. This is an honest review, and my own opinions.
