REVIEW:
To be honest whilst I do enjoy sitting back with a cracking fantasy I was left wanting with this book. Not that the characters weren’t fun to be around but because not only was the pace lacking but the details for a lot of the sequences were sadly missing.
Don’t get me wrong Elizabeth does give you a solid enough title but when you’ve sat back and read three other parts you expect the author to keep it going with the same attention to detail as the others. All in a solid enough book and whilst the story has moved forward I’ve not enjoyed this one as much as the others.
