The book shows a lot of promise with its captivating storyline and well-developed characters. However, its fast pace can be overwhelming and may make it challenging to fully immerse oneself in the narrative. At certain points, the fantastical elements described in the book can be difficult to visualize, creating a slight disconnect for the reader. Despite this, one of the most compelling aspects of the story is Eli’s personal journey to uncover her true identity and assert her individuality. Initially portrayed as cold and distant, Eli undergoes a remarkable transformation, igniting her with passion and determination as she embarks on a mission to restore magic to each world. The budding romance between Tav and Eli adds an engaging and hopeful layer to the overarching battle of good versus evil. Overall, this book is a captivating choice for readers who enjoy action-packed adventures with a hint of the supernatural.
