PROS:First thing first, the writing style.  Casey Bramble, the author, has a  very good writing style.  It's unique and it's different and I really did enjoyed it.  In the beginning of the story she took you right into her world.What's more her story was creative and her characters were quirky and quite a bit of fun to read about.  This book will not become my favorite but for something to pass the time, it was a win.CONS:Ok sadly there were a few things that I did not care for but hey this is her first book, and for her first book I believe Casey Bramble did well.  So I like to point out a few error, or parts of the story that I did not care for.So for the first con I would like to bring up is the "setting."  For example there is a black smith who makes swords and shields.  There is magic and wonderful castles that are very majestic and yet when the character order their meals…their ordering burgers and modern day food.  I did not care for that.  I believe Casey could have used her writing to cook up something different.  Also there were cars, like a limo for example.  There is magic in the world, I wished the author described something more fantasy like, sure it could have been something like a car but I believe it would have been better to keep the few "present" day items from the story.Next the writing style is good, I liked it a lot but there were a few errors.  There were some grammar mistakes and a few spelling mistakes which I know people make mistakes.  Heck I'm not perfect, and I'm sure you could find something wrong with my posts.  Also  I was confused at some of the parts of the story.  At some points I didn't understand what the author was trying to get across to us the readers, so I had to guess on what it meant. But even though I am writing this, I do believe in all my heart that this author has great potential, she just isn't a professional yet in my eyes, though she will get there.Last but not least, I would like to talk about the story itself.  It is a good story, but it wasn't perfect.  There was a good mystery and the characters were great, but it won't become one of my favorites. But I will be waiting for the next installment in the series, I really want to see where this is going.  So don't expect to be wowed.
