Thrilling story that will draw you in by Candice Burnett 'This is a genre I'm normally not drawn to but I have to say that I was glad I did. This story was different than most novels I've read before but it was new and refreshing. The world building was unique and creative and I felt myself very drawn to the characters. It had well paced exciting action but it does take some time to get there. My only real bad critique is of the cover. I just think something else in the background and new text with the title would draw a larger audience.'
