The story is what kept me going and why I rated as I did. It was a new tale and adventure I haven’t been on. Put aside the desperate need for page breaks and some editing and fighting my own urges to mark up the book as a felt it should have been, the story told I thought was phenomenal. I recommend this to all fantasy lovers.

The book was all over the place. Story line took a long time to understand. The author writing style is not great. I think there should have been a little more time spent editing. And a little more time planning the plot.

I enjoyed the story. The book could have used a better layout since the story went from one scene to another without any sort of marker to indicate this. One paragraph was one scene. The very next was another. A little jarring sometimes... But it was still a good story.
