![]() ![]() Their actions and decisions, even if you don't agree with them, suit their personality and make perfect sense. You might like them or dislike them, but I assure you that you will 'feel' something. These characters are refreshing within the Young Adult genre, they feel extremely real and genuine. ![]() The story is mostly focused on the orphans Kay and Roan. Apart from that, Faith and Moonlight did pique my interest and made me curious to read the rest of the series. The other issue is the fact that this novella feels more like an introduction than an actual full story - and I am not blaming the length of the book. However, I did feel, as a reader, that I was not fed enough information, which was a shame, because I was really interested to know more. Considering this is the first volume, I would understand that many of the unanswered questions could still be answered later in the series, and that the initial stage of world building would serve a greater purpose. The premise was excellent, there was depth in it too. The Fantasy setting serves as an interesting stage for several internal struggles. ![]() Despite the intriguing world-building, the story is not so much a conflict based story, but more of a character driven narrative. The plot moved slowly but in a way that easily caught my interest. This novella gets 3.5 stars from me, which means 4 stars on any websites that do not accept half-stars. I was offered a copy of this novella by the authors. ![]()
