Review: Good Premise, But Needs More Fleshing OUt
Rating: 3 out of 5

The story behind this novel is actually pretty good. It pulls bits from the Arthurian legend into an interesting, modern-day twist. The character of Eamon the fae is funny, and the quest Lizbet and James enter is full of adventure and danger.But, the characters fall a bit flat. There is nothing particularly interesting about Lizbet or James--the only well drawn-out character is Eamon. And the story is very linear--from start to finish nothing is left out, and most of the book comprises of the journey from America to Scotland. Nothing really happens on the journey part of it, it's when they get to Scotland that the action picks up.I think, with some reworking, this could make a more interesting story. Grammatically, it's well-written, but it lacks in giving its readers a good empathy for the characters and their plight.Nikki BennettNik's Picks Book Reviews[...](The author provided me a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.)
