Are you ready to be completely taken away to another world? If so, this is the book for you. DS Johnson does an amazing job of creating a vivid image in the readers head of the scenery and world in general. This in turn helps the characters and the conflict seem even more real as a reader.

I thought this was a great fantasy that really encompasses so many different aspects of the Fantasy genre. There was adventure and mystery laced throughout as well, which I enjoyed.

Writing style was easy to follow along with and helped me keep flipping pages steadily til the end.

This book does a great job of building a world and fleshed out characters. Not only the main characters, but I also found the side characters intriguing. The action at the end nicely moves the story forward to what I can only guess will be the larger plot.

I am excited for the second book because it feels like this set the scene for the story to really take off.

I really enjoyed this book! It is the first in a new series and really starts off with a bang! The characters are well developed and complex. They continue to develop throughout the book in a naturally organic way. Definitely read this book if you enjoy fantasy!
