    Decent

    The plot looked interesting and promising , but the beginning needs a little work. The author especially needs to work on giving more detail and background info, i.e. the girl's religion that gets her so riled up at Aaron's story. Also, the story needs a little ironing out to make it flow better. Still, this story shows a lot of promise.

    Mediocre and uninspired though premise looked promising

    I wish the author took the time to keep the details of her story straight, esp pertaining the magic system and the world itself. It looked promising but I couldn't continue through the unfocused narrative. Please get a good editor and try again.

    Easily could have been split into series.

    I liked the plot and characters who I felt were well thought out. My main issue is that in trying to make this book length, I feel things got rushed along to get you to the "action" part. The journey to the king was rushed and odd. Why would they care about breybone anymore then the others they killed. What training did they receive, are they Jedis, You felt like wait, why is she so good. A little disjointed, but as said, if the auhter goes back she could stretch out part one to be training and the jpurney to the castle. part two the finding of the Sutrines and her capture, part three her torture and killing Sutrine, and then the battle.

    I would want to get more into who Aaron is. elf? and a vampire friend? then he is a rouge theif who can break into stuff all the sudden? i troduce that earler?

    Story line has potential

    Spelling and grammer errors where every where. could be better if fixed and would deserve 5 stara if you exppained all the characters a lot more than you did . Otherwise a good read

    One of the worst books I've ever read. The characters make quick

    One of the worst books I've ever read. The characters make quick choices that don't fit their personality. The book requires extensive editing to improve hundreds of errors, both grammatical and otherwise. The main character is lacking credibility, and the mythology is sketchy and hard to swallow. I didn't like it even a little. It doesn't deserve even the one star I have to give for it.

    514 nook pages. Really just unispiring. Iove how the author gives credit to people at the end of the book. She names a few peoplr as proofreaders, and alot of editing. B.S. this was grammatically, the most error prone book i have ever read. Your in the middle of a paragraph, and boom, with no separation, all of a sudden you are reading about something different. Duh, its called chapters lady. This has got to be the worst book i have ever read. Which is very suprising, because i think the story line, is one the best ive seen, but this lady took a great idea, and mutilated it by misspelling and just terrible book layout. An editor, or better friends would have made this a five star book. However i cant give it more than one star, as the spelling and page set up, take you out of the story. I would love to read some revision of this book, after an editor or 2, and proffesional proofreaders get ahold of this.
    The story is of a slave girl, almost killed by her master and left for dead, who overcomes everything, including malicious cults and deranged gods, to save her world. And thats about all the highlights of this book

    Great read!!!!!

    This was a very interesting read. I generally gravitate toward fantasy/fiction and was truely delighted with this book. The author created a few mysterious characters for heroes and I enjoyed tracking their journey. The author has mentioned a sequel and I must say I can hardly wait to read it! I recommend this book if you like the genre.
