The character development in this story was intricate and detailed. Each person came alive upon the page with vivid descriptions.
The scenes are vivid and wonderfully described. All five senses are imbued with information to create destinations that could be viewed in the mind's eye.
This book fell short for me with a weekly driven plot. I felt like this tale had so much potential to be an epic mystical adventure, but it never reached the pinnacle. I bet if the author adds more action and dialogue, the story will become a story, instead of a collection of excellent descriptions.
There were more interactions between the characters, more action, and less info dumps and repetition . . . although it wasn't without them.
The ending was quite thrilling and the best part of it all was the positive message that came across. Meg had a hard decision to make based on moral principles, but I won't say how it concluded.
