review 1: This book/series has so much potential. Definitely something to keep your eyes on. I feel like the author had some great ideas, but left out a lot of details. And it seemed his transitions were a bit too rough for my tastes. For some reason, this book reminds me a bit of a series by Mercedes Lackey. And like her series, I think that this book could be seriously expanded. And I read the actual novel, not just the novella.
review 2: Lucia is excited that her mother has delivered a brother. And not just any baby boy, but a Haissem, with the power to rescue the world and spread the light of the gods. To Lucia's horror, the wonderful day is horribly twisted when she sees The Black God, Lord Danato by her mother in the birthing pool. The death of the Queen was on... morely the first time Lucia was witness to the appearance of Lord Danato. Years later, when the siblings have grown, their nation of Rezzia is at war with Pawelon. Lucia is leading the armies with the sword of her chosen goddess Ysa, while her dreams are haunted by Lord Danato. Her brother Caio is on his way to take charge and lead the armies to victory. But Caio doesn't want war, he isn't enthralled by the idea of fighting.Waiting for him to use is a great power, the power to raise one person from the dead. And the person he chooses isn't what anyone expected...I can't say enough good things about this novella. I read it on the heels of the latest George RR Martin, A Dance With Dragons, and was far more impressed with this story than the continuation of the Song of Fire and Ice saga. The character development is well done, the descriptions are vivid, and the story itself is unique and immediately gripping. I ended up reading the entire thing during a red-eye flight to Japan, severely cutting short my sleep time!There are few things worse than getting on an airplane and finding out the books you've stocked up on are horrible. I plan to read this entire book on a long flight, since I know I will be absorbed in the story for the whole flight - and hopefully not as aware of the the overflowing and talkative seat-mate I always seem to end up with. less
