There were so many things that I really enjoyed about this book. The story read very smoothly. One thing I look for in a book is if the story flows like a movie in my head. There was no hiccups or confusion. The story was exciting and appealing. It kept me guessing, then when I thought I had it all figured out hints were being dropped making me second guess myself.

The characters are so real and relatable.
Set and Davad- I absolutely hated Set and Davad at the beginning. They are just so unruly for their age. I feel like they should know better and they just piss me off. They didn’t listen to Jacob at all. At that age they should know better. The further you get into the story you see them grow and their personalities really shine through and completely change your mind about them.
Tristan- I really liked Tristan. He is one of my favorite characters in this book. I just feel so badly for him for everything he has overcome and still has so much more to overcome. I just want to hug him and shelter him from all the negative shit that’s thrown his way.
Jacob- I liked his character a lot! One thing I hated most about him is all his secrets. If he would just let the boys in on some things I feel like things could have turned out a little differently.
Anliac- Anliac is by far my favorite character. She is so bad ass and with her aquis skills it just send her into a whole new level. She doesn’t stop fighting even when the odds aren’t in her favor and things look grim she keeps fighting. I really like that about her.
Shashara- I didn’t really care for her. She didn’t really stand out to me as much. I felt like Anliac over shadowed her in the story. Analiac has that way about her that she demands all eyes on her.

I felt out of the loop a lot until the end when you learned more about the races and Angelis. Just enough information was given to get you by, then at the end it all clicked. It made you feel like you were being left out of the secrets too. So you were right there beside the characters feeling the anxiety, anger, sadness, and the not knowing. You were learning right along with them. It made for a really great journey.

Now for the bad part. To be honest there were only 2 things that I disliked about this book. One of my biggest pet peeves is repetition. I can’t stand repetitive words and phrases in a story. One thing that stood out to me a lot was the over use of the word trepidation. It was used enough that it caught my attention every time it showed in the story. The 2nd thing that I disliked was the book cover. I felt like the guy on the cover was not Tristan. He looks way too old to be him. I guess it’s just the facial features. It’s manlier than a teenager. He also looks constipated. Just wasn’t a fan. I love the back drop of the planets, moons, and the starry sky. The cover is what draws you in and it just didn’t do it for me.

Overall I found the book awesome and addicting. I would definitely recommend it to others. I’m also looking forward to the 2nd book in the series so I can see what happens next!

Quote from the book that stood out to me that I LOVED!

“You can trust a fera to be led by instinct. You can trust a mortalis to be more heart than head. You can trust a fulgo to see power and that a nox will place his prowess above his own life. You must know what a man is if you are to judge his value and intent. My men don’t trust you, Yellow eyes. They don’t want your help.” (Triton, Superi: Reborn P. 115)
