If you like books where everyone is dead by the end, then THIS IS THE ONE FOR YOU!
Honestly, authors could at least wait until book 2 to kill everyone off ... sheesh
The land of Mystica is made of 3 different lands; Limeros, Palesia ans Auranos. Each with their own King, kingdom and culture.
When the Princess of Auranos goes travelling to Palesia, and the guard that is with her takes the life of a young man, it sets off a chain of events that begins a war between the three lands.
Historically, magic used to be in the lands. Only some still believe that magic can be used by those that carry it - Witches and sorceresses - and that Watchers, forgotten beings that go between the Immortal and Human world still exist.
Prince Magnus of Limeros has been cautious his whole life. With the secrets he learns of his father's mistress, and the history of his sister, his whole world may come crashing down upon him.
A gripping beginning to an intense and complex series. Honestly, it is very Game-of-Throney and everyone dies. Rhodes does an amazing job of keeping us readers hooked. The first time I took a break (from crying, no doubt) I was halfway through the book. I fell into this world and did not want to leave.
Heartbreaking and beautiful, you will be unable to put it down! Make sure you have the sequel close by the second you are done.
and hello to these gorgeous covers *swoon*
