An interesting read, it seems like. Sci-fi has always been a favorite genre of mine. Will definitely be checking this out. Very good review!

A young princess joining a rebellion, fighting a war, and finding romance seem to inspire youthful idealism. Congratulations on Book of the Day!

'Official Review: The Last Lumenian' by S. G. Blaise is a comprehensive look into the tale of science fiction for readers! The unique story of princess Lila has been brought to the knowledge of avid readers! The point that several planets with futuristic technologies take part in the tale is worth mentioning in the review! Also, the point that the author's prose is easy to understand and descriptive offering the reader a clear mental picture of the story is remarkable in the review! Nice to learn that the character development in the story is superb!

The story follows a young princess named Lilla whose planet is in the verge of a war. Fans of the genre would feast on this book for sure, as it is a mix of sci-fi, adventure, and romance.

The book cover is attractive and drew my interest at first glance. I also find the storyline quite intriguing - a mix of fantasy and sci-fi. It sure would be a great read. Thanks for an amazing review.

The story seemingly follows a young, Ma'hara princess who suffers greatly from anxiety. While I do often enjoy stories that are sci-fi in nature, the sample of this story did not interest me much. The plot of the story, thus far, seemed exciting but the execution did not match the level at which the plot stands.
It was riddled with dramatic pauses, along with grammatical errors, which distracted from the flow of the story.
An example of this can be seen on the second page of the first chapter:
He brushes my hands to the side. Off the stubborn harness buckles. With a click the restraints cutting into me disappear.
The abrupt jumps within the chapter without context and sometimes from chapter to chapter also contributed to my confusion as there were spots that needed more than just the plain descriptions in order for the picture to be painted clearly.
Henceforth, I am of the opinion from the sample provided that the book does not deserve four out of four stars but instead should be at two out of four stars. However, I am open to reading more of the book to see if my opinion changes as time progresses.

This seems like an exciting sci-fi/fantasy novel. Your descriptions of the world and characters were great, and they are why I will not read this book. I don’t do well trying to keep track of all the world-building terms.:D Thank you for your thorough review!

Science fiction with a fantasy twist - The Last Lumenian sounds like the kind of mind-bending novel that promises to intrigue. Though I'm not too excited about the profanity, I won't mind giving this book a try. Thanks for the great review!

I'm not sure how I feel about Dark Lord of Destruction being shortened to DLD. It doesn't roll off the tongue very well and is hard to take seriously. However, I love stories that involve magic, so I will have to give this one a try. Thanks for a great review.
