This genre is difficult one to pursue, and yet I thought this author did a brilliant job of making it seem effortless. I loved the characters in this book and found the dialogue to be extraordinary. The author has mixed the realms of mortals and immortals and yet has managed to give us dialogue that bridges the gap seamlessly.From the very first pages in this book you can already tell that it will be a very intriguing read. Beginning with such a dark period in the history of our world, the author manages to captivate the reader, making them curious as to what lie ahead. I have trouble believing this is an effort put forth from a first-time author. This book was well edited, well organized and the plot is excellent.Personally I did not have a problem with this book having younger characters. I thought the author made it work very well. I am by no means a teen anymore, but I found this book enjoyable regardless. I loved that the author went a different way with this work than the traditional fantasy book tends to favor. This was creative and original and worthy, in my opinion of a five star review.I thought the ending was an excellent set up for the novels yet to come and left the reader with just enough questions to make them want the next book. I look forward to reading the rest of this series and feel good about recommending it.
