Ok, so some have described this as an "Romantic Fantasy", and that would be correct, I would also add, its an Fantasy of a Fantasy! It is more of a "Women's" story (chick book) but as a male who has read everything from Glenn Cook's Black Company, to Abercrombie's Law serious, Martins Ice/Fire and many others, I have to confess that I liked this book!The writing was excellent and everything followed well, yes you can nit-pick at the "world" and surrounding actions/events but that's why I call it a Fantasy of a Fantasy. I wont explain/give examples because I want you to find out for yourself and also, I'm sure the author wrote the book she wanted to write and I have no business telling her how it should be written. I will say that the rape scene was done exceptionally well!In some ways this book reminded me of the Muirwood trilogy by Jeff Wheeler (I think you would love that serious).I will be keeping an eye on this author and should she build up her talents even more to give her characters even more depth (get that grey/dark side out) I will be very pleased with myself for supporting her on her journey as a writer.
