Loved it .

For YA, the sex scenes were a bit involved. otherwise (I'm grown) I thoroughly enjoyed this fantastical magical story

Fantasy worth reading

It started a little slow, but it may have taken me a while to get used to the voice of the reader. But once it picked up, I was hooked and by the end of it, immediately ordered the sequel. I'm a fan of Sanderson, Goodkind, and Robert Jordan. This series has the potential to join those ranks.

“Hidden Treasure!”

For months, I’ve been looking for a good book to read that didn’t have sex in the third chapter. Thank you L. Penelope for this amazing story. I’ve already downloaded the second book to this series and can’t wait to get started. The narrator was also amazing. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great!!!

Jack is a prisoner when it begins but is not seen as an enemy by the heroine. Great story. Wanted more from this author about this world she created. Loved it. Next book please!!

Decent, not great

This book has a decent flow to it, and an interesting concept, and even likeable main characters.

But there are some things that don't fit. The tone and level are YA, but there are some rather descriptive sex scenes, so it definitely isn't that.

I love genre bending, but if not done well, it just doesn't work. Here, the setting is mostly classic fantasy world with magic, but suddenly modern technologies are inserted, which could be awesome but in this case is clumsy. There isn't enough of it to be integral to the world, and there is a mish-mash of too many periods. And wester/frontier overtones.

And for a book that is essentially a tract on race - it's treatment of the subject is rather simplistic.

Yet going back to the start of this - it was nevertheless an enjoyable listen.

Decent Book

This book definitely fell into some cliches and stereotypes. But was still a decent read (listen?). Ending felt a bit rushed and I don't 100% love the boom but like I said still a good read.

Excellent Read

Enjoyed this book. Very informative and well written. The author has a unique writing style.

This book captured my attention

At times i found myself having to go back to other chapters understanding what was going on. But overall the story line is magnificent. I just wish the other books were available on audible.

pretty good stuff... highly original

@Lit2Animate for eventual details. Was a unique and interesting fantasy, and a few lovey dovey bits, but not too much, still pretty well done...

Wow

I just loved the story between Jasmina and Jack, the connection between them from the beginning and the fight that Jasmina has is everything!!!!! I hope there is a part 2.
