Ratings and reviews

Super cool....

The storyline of the book is a fairly standard fantasy romp, However the author has a tendency to rush things. As a result it feels crammed and nothing is fully explored like it could be. Could have been much better if someone had told the author to explore the world a bit better.

It was a good story but I felt there were too many details that weren't necessary to the plot. On the other hand, the story jumped forward (some times several days) without giving any details. There were times I felt lost with what was going on- as if the Author makes the assumption that the reader knows a back story when there isn't one. Very choppy.
