Your review is wonderful. I liked how you included your opinion in the review, but also mentioned the summary of the book.

This review has made me want to read this book. I am not usually drawn to Sci-Fi, but the manner in which the reviewer explains the set-up of the book and the character introductions make it quite interesting. I am gladly going to give it a read! Thank you for a great review.

I am not a fan of fantasy, but this book seems to have an intricate plot and well written characters. Should definitely appeal to fans of this genre.

Latest Review: The Mindset by Ace Bowers

If you like fiction and magic you might like the book, but if you are the kind of reader for whom it takes a lot to indulge yourself into a make-believe world you might want to pass on this one. I gave the book 2 out of 4 stars for its constructive plot technique and the planning that goes therein. But as for me, I didn’t particularly love the book.

A sci-fi and fantasy story about Galen who is trying to deal with the business in the kingdom of Voulhire he has inherited from his uncle. Not my genre but thanks for the review.

The premise certainly seems fascinating, and it also seems like a well-constructed book overall. I do enjoy a good fantasy read sometimes, so I'll definitely keep this in mind. Thanks for the review!

I'm a huge fan of SciFi and fantasy books. It's a shame the paragraphs were not so elaborate. I hope the author works on it further. Your mention of Game of thrones has definitely gotten me hooked to this one. I'm grabbing my copy soon. Thanks for the review

Thank you for your review! I've downloaded my free copy, although I'm not sure yet if this is the one for me. I like that the author included a map for readers to refer to while reading to help get a sense of where everything is located. You mentioned Game of Thrones...if today's BOTD is anything like it, it's definitely going to become a quick favorite of many! Thanks again! :-)

Sci-fi is not one of my most favorite genres, but this book sounds very intriguing. You did a very good job telling about the Voulhire realm and the protagonist, Galen Bray. I will add this book to my shelves.
