My Review: 

It was a super quick read! What I immediately liked about this Novella is the cover art, the map (side note: maps are always a plus in my book!), I liked that although it is part of a series it can be read as a stand alone. I also liked the story line and that it is a clean read. In my opinion it is most suitable for younger readers. As an adult reader I enjoyed being able to read a solid fantasy story without the time commitment of a novel. 

Note: I was given an ARC copy by the author in exchange for an honest review. It doesn't in any way shape or form influence my review.
