Into the Wildbarrens by Christian Sterling
3.0
Thank you to Christian Sterling for providing me with an arc in exchange for a honest review.
This book holds a very classic fantasy feel which I really enjoyed and something I realised I had missed. The world Christian has created is captivating and I love the idea of our main character Falin having to search for gems in order to reach his full potential. He is aided in this quest by a diverse group of champions who each bring something special to the group and I loved the stranger to family trope used in this book.
This story has a lot of potential and I liked how each character developed over the book. The fight scenes were very clear and precise which I liked. I would love to see how much more they develop and what troubles they face in the next chapter.
I did feel at times that the dialogue was too modern for the characters and the setting of the book and I felt like I was pulled out of this magical world Christain created but this can easily be fixed with some fine tuning.
Overall I enjoyed this book and the characters created. I loved the teasing nature and the humour between the group (especially by Red and Jimbuah). If you enjoy fantasy books with lots of twists and turns then this book is definitely for you.
