This is a YA fantasy series that has so much promise and potential * Culturefly *A strong storyline and well-drawn characters combine with the dark setting to produce a very entertaining opener to a trilogy that will allow the author time to expand the political world outside Zalindov, with its warring factions and ever-shifting alliances... Kiva's place in all this becomes clear in a late twist that left me very much wanting more of Lynette Noni's dark vision of a world where politics combines with elemental power into a very effective and entrancing adventure alongside a hint of developing romance * Crime Review *Fantastic fantasy with a great plot * Teen Titles *
