Full disclousure, I have not read this book, but I have a reason why. I read the sample to see if I would like it and I found the writing to be somewhat awkward. I mean no disrespect to the author, but the writing could use some polish.From the opening paragraph of the book:"Darkness engulfed the corners of the street and there was hardly any soul nearby. The occasional sound of the icy winter air whizzing through the leaves added to the eeriness. City hospital stood there staring at the street with a frown; its gray walls looking gloomy with intermittent lighting further adding to its spook."I could see how some fantasy enthusiast might see past any shortcomings, but I suggest that casual readers steer clear.
