I wonder...
1) Why didn't I discover this book sooner?
2) Why isn't it a best seller yet?
I am absolutely IN LOVE. I've never seen fantasy, paranormal and sci-fi blending so perfectly before. I had understood this would be an amazing book since the first pages full of mistery and surprise. And the most surprising thing is (if I assumed right) that all this book is just a sort of anticipation of the real story, which will be told in the sequel.
All characters are particular and original. I've met for the first time the Nu Human, experiments created by combining different kinds of DNA in order to realize soldiers with inhanced skilled. Eira, the heroine, is one of them, but at the same time she's not. Her personality is obscure and tormented. She can't feel the emotions as everybody else does.
On the other hand there's my new crush: Raikidan. He's a Black-Red dragon with the skill of shapeshifter, and he's soooo adorable! Sometimes I wondered if the main character was him or Eira, because during all the story he's always present and learning new things about the human world. He's so cute when he asks embarassing things to Eira! But at the same time he's strong, clever and mysterious.
What I found so good, aside of the style, is that there are both action and reflection, past and present, sad moments and funny ones. The past of the characters isn't completely revealed, but this helps to make the story even more captivating.
Should we talk about the ending? Totally unexpected! I MUST read the sequel, or I'll get mad xD
I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. ( )
