"Awesome series "
Yasmine Saleem
"3.5<br/><br/>It was an alright read, not too bad and not too interesting. The MMC is young Fletcher who has to escape from his rural village due to a fight with a rich kid. I appreciate that we didn’t spend too much time on the beginning of his journey since it was more about his growth and adventure in the academy he ends up in. I prefer immersion reading and it definitely helped me stay interested in the story. Nothing is necessarily wrong with the story; it’s a pretty straight forward simple story. The prejudice and racism between the communities was dealt with well and the war was explained simply enough. I have the rest of the series so I have no qualms with finishing the rest of the series. The ending was frustrating but in a good way."

"A great book if I do say so myself. It’s very dramatic but also very intriguing as well. There’s 3 books and a sequel. I am absolutely hooked. It has drama, unexpected plot twists, and a bit of humor. It kept me on my toes. So if you read it I hope you enjoy it like I did."

"I love the writing style and how it tells the story. It paces itself fast, but not so fast were you have to reread. I felt like there was always one question after every answer it given me. Just a fabulous book. "
