Donaldson, Terry Brooks, Terry Goodkind and Robert Jordan. In concept and approach, then, it’s a mashup of such favorite (or least favorite, depending) epic-fantasy authors as Stephen R.

Still, for reasons unclear, the Veil is weakening, so the good guys need to pull an army together (historically, this has been a problem) and also organize a heroes’ quest, though it’s far from certain what the heroes hope to accomplish. A members of a sect called the Leiholan dedicate themselves to maintaining the Veil by singing the Song of Suffering. I found the villain to be long winded and annoying rather than intimidating and scary and for as smart as Seraphina is supposed to be it took WAAAAAY to long for her to figure things out at the end.Reboot (read: author’s definitive edition) of a fantasy first published in 2011, pointing the way to an upcoming sequel.Ī magical Veil separates the good guys of the Eastlands from the evil Westlands. When a book starts out with really well paced action and mystery I want it to keep that pace, and the romance kind of ruins it for me. Then everything slowed down because we had to waste time talking about how hard it is for the characters to breathe when they're around each other, how the color of their eyes change with different emotions and at certain times of day, the adorable crooked smiles, yada yada yada. Review 2: *2.5 stars* I would give the beginning of the book four s. I'd recommend this book to basically anyone who likes to read (: Their love is out of our time ( But lastly, the ending was an amazing cliffhanger that leaves many possibilities and I went nuts with so many mixed emotions. All the foreshadowing about him just emphasizes the truth of how strong their love is.

I thought it would just be a story about a girl creating a new life after surviving a tragedy but it is so much more! Now that I look back and think, I've realized the hints and foreshadowing throughout the beginning of the book about Seraphina's past and most importantly Lyzender.

Review 1: I absolutely loved this book! The beginning in my opinion started off slow and didn't interest me that much.
