I thought the start of this book was excellent,as good as any young adult fantasy as I have read.Two young boys are coming of age and are going on their last hunting trip with one another.Each wishing he was in the others spot.They wonder out of the borders of the kingdom and into a cave.At this point the two young men come face to face with the impossible.  Then the second part of the story takes over in a different part of the kingdom,a young boy on a hunt, follows his kill to far into the woods only to be all most killed.I liked the first part much better then the second all though both were well told.Mr.Mathias sets up his next installment with good sound story telling.This is my first novel of his and I will be looking into the others.Hard to find a story teller who can give a excellent picture of the world he has created without over thinking it.This book was free and I enjoyed it more the the last installment of Game of thrones.Why more people are not on to these books is beyond me./
