The novel features perfect fantasy, thrill, suspense and action. I was hooked from the first page and didn’t want to put it down for a second.
The uncertainty, especially in the middle, made me eager to see what would become of guardians’ hearts and when the villain would be exposed. Although, it was pretty obvious who the villain was, the crucial point was that the public wasn’t aware of the villain.
Next, the fantasy and the world building was so rich. The concept seemed new and intriguing to me. I want to share so much about it but I fear I’ll end up giving a spoiler here. The action scenes were nicely portrayed.
Regarding the characters, I think they had depth, including the villain. Charlotte’s character is especially well-depicted. Despite losing so much, she remained steadfast and resilient, albeit emotional. I believe these qualities made her a perfect character.
About Luc, he was a gentleman to some extent if only he could have freed himself fully from the clutches of darkness. But still it was nice to see him trying at least.
Guardian Worth was also a nice character. He taught Charlotte so much and was a perfect mentor. The villain also had a sad story. Overall, in my opinion, the novel conveys a message of remaining optimistic and not succumbing to fear or hopelessness.
The novel ended on a cliffhanger. I’m so excited to see what will happen in the next book. This is the first book in the duology, and it’s already out.
