The synopsis of this was really interesting but the content not too much. It was really really slow paced and the characters were just really flat and I couldn't connect with any of them. The plot was non-existent to say the least and the teeny tiny bit of action there was very predictable. There was also an attempt at romance which failed miserably cause as I said the characters are very flat and plain so I just wasn't interested at all. The story had potential I liked the idea but the execution was very poor. This is a duology but I have no intent of the second book cause I don't think I can go on woth the characters anymore there's nothing I'm interested in in the world.
