Infants and matures story sound like an interesting fantasy that will take one's mind in a different world. With as much as this book has struck me, I would love to read the first book in the series for the story to flow. Outstanding review and congratulations to the author on BOTD.

Thanks for your review. You gave a much clearer idea of what the book’s world is like than the book’s blurb! The fourth dimension sounds quite intriguing.

I wonder how Piper felt when she realized who she truly is. A princess set to save the entire universe from an evil leader and the consequences of his evil rule. Great review by the way.

Fantasy but God, this is deep is the impression I got reading the review. And it doesn't come across as the usual high-fantasy either. But this is the second in a trilogy. I will check this out after reading the first, then!
Btw, congrats on being selected as BOTD!

I read the sample and found it interesting, but I was a bit confused at first. However the review did clear some things up for me, and this sounds like a thrilling and a somewhat different fantasy series. I will be interested to read more about living in the fourth dimension. I assume this is a physical dimension, and not time, which is often called the fourth dimension. The different races all sound very interesting, but I suspect that the weakest, being the infants, may turn out to be powerful indeed. I will have to read the book to find out! I enjoyed the review which is as colourful as the book sounds.

Although I don't usually enjoy fantasy or sci-fi, your enthusastic review could encourage me to give the genre another try. I was pleased to hear that it was well-edited and that the writer was very descriptive.

This book has a unique premise. I'm interested to learn why the author decided to name the series after the stages of cell division. It seems an odd choice. I might give the first book a go. Great review.

From this review, I clearly see the fantasy and magical aspect of the book. I got a bit confused to the exact storyline but I guess it is something I have to read to truly get. This seems like an exciting read.

The world described in Metaphase is beautiful! I like all of the different creatures and their metaphysical abilities. I also like the names of the characters - a lot of them are biblical names. Very cool book!

The world with the Guardians, Avians, Canites, Vampacoti sounds like it’s worth exploring. Like you, I think I’d want to read the first book in the series before this one. Good review!

I love the shape shifting and the multiple dimensions. It sounds like an interesting story, one I would enjoy. I have to start with the first, though. Thanks!
