No major warnings!

It's a fun magical book with mystery, prophecies, magical creatures, ancient beings, and intrigue.

The biggest thing that bothered me was the omniscient POV.

Great start to a series! Looking forward to sharing with my young readers and fans of magical books.

Fun!

Que estrés!! Me tiene en vilo y desvelada.
Aunque tiene muchísima información que a veces me saltaba en sí la novela está buenísima.
Leerlo de noche hizo que me diera un poco de miedo

taboogalloo's review against another edition

DID NOT FINISH: 50%

Characters were flat, boring, and had no development. Stakes were too low. Pacing was weird. Whole book took place over the course of two days. 

I honestly liked this book. However, I must admit that I wasn't too sure on purchasing it at first and decided just to give it a try. Everyone seems to have their own opinions of this book, and judging from reviews that I have read on this book from other readers, did not enjoy this book. For me, I quite enjoyed the book. All I can say is that everyone has different taste in books.
