A review by kittycaserine
The Emerald Atlas by John Stephens

3.0

3.5 stars.

It loses points for the second chapter with the swan woman. I did not see a point to that. And then for the fact I found it dragged on a lot. There were too many final battles and in the end I found I just wanted it to end. The story was great, but I do not have any interest in continuing the series.

Furthermore, the time travel got to be a bit much. I did not like how he had to take the picture because in the future they had the picture type of moments.

On the plus sides, the characters were strong. I really enjoyed the dwarves. And I did enjoy it for most of the time I was reading. As for YA fantasy novels, it is very good and would recommend this to anyone between the ages of 15-20 who want something interesting to get lost in.
