I actually really enjoyed this book. It surprised me because it took a while for me to get into it and I didn't really like the cover. At first I didn't like how it kept switching point of views because it was confusing. However, once they started tying together then the puzzle pieces came together. I loved how intense it was because it kept me hooked and on the edge of my seat. I feel like there are still a lot of questions left unanswered and I'd love to explore more of this series. I would definitely recommend this book to other people.

As the narrative unfurls, intricate tapestries of civilization emerge within this fantastical realm, where a myriad of cultures interweave, each with its own vibrant customs, beliefs, and languages. The world is a canvas painted with hues borrowed from the tapestry of real-world history and mythology, creating a captivating backdrop for the unfolding epic.

It stands out for its intricate world-building, well-developed characters, and a complex yet engaging plot. Ramirez's skill in weaving multiple storylines into a coherent narrative is commendable. While the initial complexity might challenge some readers, the novel’s immersive storytelling and detailed setting make it a rewarding read. This book is highly recommended for fans of fantasy seeking a rich and layered narrative.

This is one of the best books I have read. It is full of adventure, gory, suspenseful, and professionally edited. I liked the quotes at the beginning of each chapter that gave me an idea of what it was going to be about. I am delighted that I was able to give it a perfect score of 5 out of 5 stars. I hope to be able to read more of the books in this series.

I had no idea what I was emerging into. However, I must say that I loved this book. The different points of view, the different challenges, and the continuous additions to the plot made me extremely curious. I couldn't stop until I understood their destiny. Even though I still have many questions, that can only mean this is a promissory Saga for me to continue.

I found the book quite enlightening, especially to the extent that humans would go to survive. I loved the quotes included in the beginning of every chapter the most. My favourite was, "“When I’ve continued forward into the face of unbearable adversity, it’s been less about my strength of character, and more about my available options. I think that’s how it is for most of us.”
The mind adapts and converts to its own purposes the obstacle to our acting. The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way. - Marcus Aurelius

The tittle is very alluring to any one that comes across it. There wasn't much space for any unecessary write up the content of the book started immediately into action and it's amazing.

At the beginning of the book, I didn't think much of it. While I was reading, my mind would wander and I was easily distracted. Now, I am three-quarters into the book, and I am hooked. I can't wait to see what happens next.

The book starts out with great detail for me. I think, unlike most people, I enjoyed the thrill that came with it. The book cover did not really look as attractive as the contents appeared to be. Book covers have always meant little to me anyway. Overall, the best part was not having to wait for any buildup.

The cover was not that appealing to me, but I am glad the writing made for that let-down because it was very to understand, and moved the story nicely so welll. I think I would recommend it to people who are new into the genre, as seasoned readers might not enjoy it that much. I would rate it three out of five stars as a result.

This is just the beginning of an even bigger story, and I think the author did a great job of setting up the universe in an understandable way, and while keeping me interested in the plotline. I enjoyed it and I will most likely finish the series.

The start of this series, although initially unsettling with gory details, swiftly draws readers into a rich, fantastical realm with diverse cultures and a captivating blend of action, adventure, and mystery. Despite its intensity, the narrative skillfully addresses social issues, making it a compelling read.

I'm glad you found the book enjoyable despite initial reservations. The intricate plot, with its shifting perspectives, proved rewarding as the puzzle pieces converged. The intensity that kept you hooked is a testament to its gripping narrative. Here's hoping the series delves deeper into those lingering questions!
