Story: ***
An Ok YA Fantasy with SciFi/Military Tropes.
It’s a premise that has been done before … a lot; however, that really is what I was signing up for, so I didn’t really count that against it. The Narration was a bit flat making the experience a little less natural feeling, but still reasonable enough to enjoy the book. Part of that is the writing style, which was heavy on description over showing/action making the story one that requires a substantial amount of Letting Go if you wanted to enjoy it … I mean … 12 year old kids basically going full out special ops after a brief boot camp that apparently trains it’s soldiers using the Lord of the Flies method. Yeah … good times … just roll with it and feel good (seriously, it is primarily billed as a fantasy for a reason). Over all the book was entertaining enough to finish and I did actually enjoy some of the twists and silliness, so dig in for a casual read and you won’t be disappointed.
I was given this free advance review/listener copy (ARC) audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
