The Storm Runner by J.C. Cervantes
3.0
I've started to appreciate The Storm Runner on the middle where the real adventure begins. Which I've got to know the Mayans version of gods and creatures along the way.
The first few chapters were not that engaging. There are tension and action but it didn't capture me well enough. I must say, they actually confused me to the point that I can't follow the flow of the story. I've just read on and didn't mind what is going on with the main character, who is Zane Obispo, and who really he is. And what he needs to do. Zero fucks given.
But came the middle part where I felt like I was tug to my core and instruct me to pay attention because the book will be wild. And sure it was! I don't want to spoil but this is the point where I can't stop reading and I really care about Zane Obispo, even he is an annoying child who asks a lot of question. I-want-to-know-about-him-already care. Something like that.
And it didn't disappoint. I've got to know what I need to know. It was really impressive. Knowing the Mayan gods, too! And their powers and capabilities. Even the antagonists are well-written. I just noticed some similarities with Harry Potter and Percy Jackson on some elements but it is probably unavoidable.
Will surely read the next one!
