I liked this one. I didn't exactly know what to expect, but it turned out to be an exciting, action-packed story full of magic.
The magic system is very unique, and I have to admit I don't quite get it. Which frustrates me a bit, vevause I want to get it.
I really enjoyed the dual POV of Adam and Bobby. They're estranged brother, both with their own issues and guilt and anger towards the other. Seeing them reunite and stumble through some kind of reconciliation was fascinating.
The storyline itself is full of twists and turns, and there is always something happening. It's not always the easiest to follow, but it comes together in the end.
I'm very interested in seeing where this story goes.
