My Review:  
Alright this is the second book by author Matthew Iden. The first was Assassin  and I reviewed it earlier. And as for this book, I will say that again refreshing as a short book as well as being another fantasy. 

I did read this one just a quick as I read the first, and feel the same about this one. I did enjoy parts but some was just not for me. I liked the cover, the characters were well written, plot was okay, ending actually I was glad to get to the end. 

So there is my thoughts, Yours may differ which is fine. 

But for this book and author I will be giving a Breath of Life Rating:

Four Star Rating:  

Disclosure: I did received the above book in exchange for my honest opinion and review. Opinions are my own and yours may differ.

About the Author:

 

I write fantasy, science fiction, horror, thrillers, crime fiction, and contemporary literary fiction with a psychological twist.

I’ve held jobs with the US Postal Service, international non-profit groups, a short stint with the Forest Service in Sitka, Alaska, and time with the globe-spanning Semester at Sea program. Trips to Iceland, Patagonia, and Antarctica added to the creative pot, as well, and I started to put all those experiences to good use about eight years ago--thinking, dreaming, and writing.
