Throughout reading I could feel how much work the author had done, how much effort was put into this book. It somehow reminded me of Avatar (i'm not an Avatar fan, though) that's how precisely it was written.But i have to admit i skipped a lot. The beginning was hard, but i forced myself to continue.it's a good book, i feel i need to give the author a credit for so much effort, but there were parts when it bored me.You may ask why am i giving 4-stars to a book which sometimes bored me? Because as i said already, I saw all the effort, all the love which was put in the book. i couldn't rate it lower.Chalice is a fighting girlpower who has to fight the evil and restore the peace. of course, she's also very beautiful, she reminded me a Disney character--flawless in everything. I don't like flawless characters but it's a fantasy, fairy-tale, and i can't expect to see a complex character in a kids' book.i think i will check the sequels. possibly i will skip some parts again, if the writing is still so descriptive.Don't get me wrong, i love descriptive writing, i'm a  classic book fan, and the classics like Dickens use descriptive writing a lot. But Dickens and the rest do not describe every single object and clothing piece which makes it easier for me to read them without skipping.Overall, cute book. Yes, 'cute' is the word i'd use here.If you're into fantasy, give it a try.
