Den Patrick‘s fantasy novel (the first in a trilogy) has interesting world-building that incorporates Norse and Russian history and tries to subvert the tropes of normal ‘young people discover magical powers‘ fiction. Unfortunately the pacing is slack, the storytelling doesn‘t stand on its logic and the characterisation - particularly of the antagonists - is rarely above the superficial, meaning I won‘t be reading on.

I finally finished a book after the last terrible week. Things start to look brighter now😊
The world was nordic-myth inspired, but taken a bit further. It was a bit hard for me to get through, but that can be blamed on me, and not on the book!

Couldn‘t resist this limited signed edition from Goldsboro. I read the ARC and thought it was a solid fantasy. Looking forward to the next book! #bookmail

Scott_BookInvasion I love what Goldsboro does for books! This is awesome. 7y
ScorpioBookDreams @MisfitNerdBooks they‘re so bad for my bank balance though! 😂 7y
Sophoclessweetheart Beautiful!! 🖤🖤Hi Sweet. I‘m your match for aswapoficeandfire! I‘m so excited to shop for you. If you want to ask me anything go right ahead. When I submitted my sign up I‘d not been reading much fantasy for months so was pretty vague about some of my responses. 🖤🖤 I‘ve already started looking for treats for you! 😹🙊 7y

ScorpioBookDreams @Sorceryandswords hi! Really looking forward to the swap. I‘ll collect up my game of thrones merch and take a photo for you. I don‘t have a ridiculous amount or anything so don‘t worry! Please let me know if there‘s anything you‘d really like in particular! Or a specific edition. 😊 7y
Sophoclessweetheart I‘ll do the same for you too. Though I don‘t own that much either 😹🖤 I‘m pretty much grateful for whatever, sweetling. Though I would very much like a copy of Windhaven. 🖤 7y
Caroline2 Oh I just won a copy of this from Goodreads! My first win!! Yay! 👏🏻 but where do you order all your lovely special editions from?? 🤔 I need to brighten up my bookshelf! 😃 7y
ScorpioBookDreams @Caroline2 Goldsboro Books is great for special editions. Forbidden Planet often get signed editions too, and Waterstones, of course. 7y
Caroline2 Oh thanks Rachael, I‘ll check them out! 👍🏻 7y
