This was an excellent fantasy tale. I didn't want to stop reading. It's not very long, but it's packed with action, adventure, and romance. If you're looking for a clean fantasy story which stays true to the genre, in my opinion, then you won't want to miss this one.
I really enjoyed this book. The characters and their situations are well developed. Mara the human wants excitement and magic manipulates her into finding it. What she finds is not what she expected. Bran the dark elf prince had the burden of saving his people according to the prophecy proclaimed at his birth and is the strongest of his race. Mara and he need each other to save his world from the void. Their relationship is strained and you have to read the book to find out if they save the world, and what happens to their relationship. I recommend this if you like magic and unexpected endings.
Yesterday, I finished a book that I couldn't get out of my head. I hated that other book, and skipped a lot of it, but I still had this yucky residue left inside me. I wanted a book to make me forget the other book. This book was perfect. Magic, loyalty, love. It could have been longer (some reviewers said it was rushed) but I didn't mind that. I enjoyed the characters. I am ready to begin book 2 and hope it will draw me in as well. SO GLAD I FOUND THIS BOOK & AUTHOR!!!!

I must say this book definitely does not fall into a cookie-cutter mold! I was never quite sure which direction it would take. It was great! It is well written with realistic characters. The subtle humor was a nice addition, while the world building was excellent. It had a satisfying ending but left room for the next book, which I plan to purchase. I have also followed the author because I like Anthea Sharp's writing style. I am thankful to have found her through a giveaway.
