Descend by L.R. Friedman

4.0

Descend is the first book in The Blaze Legacy series, and was a really good dark portal fantasy! I really enjoyed the world building and the plot was really intriguing. I loved all of the magical creatures we encountered!

In this book you follow two points of view, Kyleigh and Aislin. The characters were layered and enjoyable to experience this story with. The plot twists threw me for a loop too! I didn’t expect them, especially towards the end!

I do wish that there would have been more explanation in regards to the magic in this world.  I feel that this area could have been developed a little bit more and made this story even more enjoyable. 

If you are wanting to dip your toes into reading New Adult, this is a good one to start with.
