    just wow!
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 29, 2023*

I had only read the girl in the box series from Robert Crane.  As I wait for the next book to come for the series, I decided to try something else by this author .  And I am so glad I did.  Wow! He has caught my attention with another great series I’m looking forward to the second and third books which I have downloaded in my medley already.  Great job Mr. Crane you are definitely becoming one of my favorite authors.  I read continuously every day.  So I have read several authors books so being in my top five is saying something.  Keep them coming.

I can’t help but love this series. Do you have a show or movie you watch to improve your mood?  That’s this series for me. I’m hoping the rest of the series gets published in hardcover because, we’ll, it’s gonna look good in my shelves.

    It was a pretty decent book
  

*by A***A on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 3, 2015*

It was a pretty decent book. Quick read.There wasn't much character development, which I didn't like. The storyline does seem a bit unique though, so that's a perk. It was sometimes a little stale in places though. On top of it, the book moved excruciatingly fast and wasn't very detailed for the most part. Life just kind of whizzed by for the characters and I wish there'd been more time actually spent of the story with less action.The action itself is pretty poorly done as well. I like the ingenuity during the second dragon kill though, as that's not something I've seen done in a fantasy novel where the hero has to slay a dragon. Unfortunately, for the most part there's no real description to the action either, which is a big deal when your novel focuses on that action. It was definitely disappointing in this area, but it's not an uncommon or necessarily rare problem. I see it all the time with any book with action sequences. Too often it's sub par.I like how it was a very fantasy oriented book- not just in terms of setting, etc, but also in terms of how it had a more DnD type feel to it. Guild systems, questing, etc. While some have called the magic use questionable and unrealistic, it's actually really not. The concepts of teleportation and resurrection, and the laws under which they operate in the novel are at least on par with the type of fantasy games that I feel this makes an attempt to emulate. To top it off it's realistic as well- unlike others which talk about it as if there are no laws or limitations. It's true to it's genre, at least. I think we've just gotten too cozy with realistic fiction, so this seems foreign to people who didn't grow up with these sorts of spells and systems, or who have never bothered to play a tabletop style RPG let alone a common computer-based MMORPG.One character I thought should have, truthfully, been the actual focus of the book is Vara. Cyrus is an interesting character (though definitely not as interesting as he could be, truthfully), but Vara was the only character in which we really got to see emotion and growth, and I wish it had been her story instead of Cyrus' in all honesty.None the less, it's a decent YA read if you want something quick. I'm actually interested in seeing what the rest of the series is like based on the teaser in the end of the book... Though not too sure if I'm invested enough to actually pick it upFor more of my reviews, see my Goodreads account here: [...]
