My Review:
This book has been said to be like Game of Thrones or The Hunger Games.
Because of this I expected this book to be medieval or a dystopian book. The
beginning of the book led me to believe that it was happening in a medieval-ish
world. The characters are fighting with swords and other weapons from that time
frame. Shortly after you hear about there being cars and planes. I instantly
went through a moment of shock and annoyance because I was reading this story
in one time frame when in reality it was nowhere near it. I wish the author
would have described the time period more clearly because that in itself almost
ruined the book for me. After getting through that and pushing through, the book
started to pick up a bit. That is not to say that anything was described more
clearly but it did get better. This book was all over the place in my opinion.
It had good potential and characters but really failed in delivery.
My rating:
2.5 out of 5
I received this book to
review through NetGalley for an honest review. All opinions are my own.
