I find the warning on mass deaths to be timely as people who may not be able to get over it will not read the book.
There is also the fairy tales in this book. Thanks for a great review.

Great review! I recently read quite a few fantasy books about faeries and I’ve really enjoyed them. This one sounds amazing. Thanks for your review.

From the book review, the book seems quite interesting. The whole slaying and grimnir resurecting seems like a story I can enjoy reading. I love stories with big bloodshed.

Love to read this kind of book. Any storyline that talks about the spirit-world and ancient stories always attract me.

This is a favorite genre of mine and I am glad to see that you loved this book and gave it such high ratings. I also like that it doesn't skip back and forth in time every chapter leaving the reader confused and that the writer was able to build such solid characters that only had to exist over 5 days. Great review!

Who wouldn’t want to read a book with such a wonderful and honest review?
In a literary world where every possible fantastic creature seems to have already been discovered, kudos to the author for making his characters unique! I’m definitely reading this book!

Your enthusiasm has added to my interest in reading this book. I do enjoy fantasy, but extreme violence makes me hesitate. Not really sure I want to read the book. Your review is outstanding.

I love your review Bianca. I'm generally averse to violent stories but I think I'll make an exception for this one, the book sounds too superb to be missed.

I did a First Ten review of this book earlier today and I feel like what I read, on top of your Review, make me definitely want to finish it. I love fantasy stories and the complexity of this one, with a story that lasts throughout a great period of time, plus all of the magic and action and how much is dependent on the character's choices. It seems so exciting! I definitely want more

"Immortal' Requiem"

Violent and gory right from the start with medieval brutish tension throughout the tale. Exciting, if a bit 'over' bloody.

Thanks for the great review. I have some minor interest in science fiction. I wasn’t sure about this one, but your passion for the book leads me to believe it is more than just another book about elves. I like the idea of the two souls bound together and of an ancient evil lurking around today. I look forward to reading it.

This story sounds fantastic! I read the blurb and squealed I was so excited! I love the fantasy and paranormal aspects of this story. I'm beyond eager to start reading it. I'm a little unsure about the story transpiring over a five day period, but I guess that means that it will be really action packed. Since the plot sounds so good I'm sure I'll find myself lost in the pages in no time. Hopefully, the author will write more!

I can see how immersed you were into the story. It shows from your review that really enjoyed it. While I love watching fantasy movies, I don't think this one is a good read for me, especially that it involves violence and extreme killing. I believe it's a fantastic novel though and the author has done a great job. Congratulations on the book of the day!
