Rating: ★★★★
My Review: I really wanted to read this one based on the cover. And the story did not disappoint. It was a tale woven though a lot of characters and its one that I couldn't out down. I read this in one sitting and can't wait for more! This one reminded me things like The Lord of the Rings, The Princess Bride, The Wizard of Oz, and others where there's a journey. This was one epic story!
