Blog | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | Pinterest ”Dreams starve and die if not fed by imagination.” A uniquely designed plot, intriguing and different. I was so excited to read this book. The cover was mesmerising and the synopsis was promising. It made me eager to start the book and I couldn’t wait to dive into this fantasy world. The first couple of chapters were very slow for me. I had to re-read chapters twice, and I didn’t quite understand what is happening. After a while, things became clearer, and I started to enjoy the story a bit more. I loved Niena’s character. She was a typical being, where one part gasps with bravery, and the rest gasps with fear. I loved how realistic she was at moments, knowing to be scared when supposed to, and fierce when needed of her. The story gasps with a lot of intense scenes, full of adventures, that I am sure you will all love and appreciate. From trying to fight a dragon, to running away, to the amazing plot twist right at the very end, this book made me restless, after I started enjoying it. The only reason I am taking two stars away is because I had to read the first 60-ish pages two-three times, until I finally dived in and started enjoying the story. ”A fairy bargain can live no deeper than your lips, it always dies before reaching the heart.” A beautiful tale, full of magic, adventure and time travel. And a cover that suits it so well. Blog | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | Pinterest I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. The author has created a unique setting with its own history and politics. The author creates interesting characters with goals and passions that you want to learn about and see succeed. The story itself was unique and unpredictable but the style was difficult to read. The first person present tense makes parts of the story hard to follow and when the author provides information the first person narrator shouldn’t know it pulls readers out of the story. I see potential in this author and hope to read more in the future as this author continues to grow. You can learn style a lot easier than you can learn ideas and world building; and the author is excellent ant the one that’s hard to learn. Even with the style issues this is a worthwhile read because the characters and world are so well developed. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Sixteen-year-old Niena wants nothing more than to attend an elite bardic college, but when the dragon that shattered the empire awakens again she finds herself on the run, through the fey realm of Fairhome, to the city where she was born. On her trail are her army veteran grandfather, thrown into a commander¿s role he doesn¿t want, the lord of the fairies, trying to steer her to his own ends, and the husband she won¿t meet for fifteen years. If she kills the dragon, she¿ll save everyone she holds dear. But if she kills the dragon, she¿s cursed instead to become it. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
