certain things felt glazed over, like the author was working on a tight deadline and didn't really have much time to put in the little extra detail that would've made the story all the more breathtaking. but a good, fast pace doesn't necessarily mean that details should be compromised on. everything kept happening one right after another, with little to no contrast in pace, which was a little sad because a good, strong contrast could've made at least 4 of the action scenes 10x more intense and impactful. there was no cooking around a campfire, a little brief respite. One, the book didn't have a 'slow-down' scene. even though things were happening nonstop, i did feel as though some scenes were not jarring/impactful enough for a couple of reasons. The pace isn't exceedingly demanding, which i thought was nice.
I really liked how the story unfolded with an intensity that left me breathless and clutching the book so tightly my hands turned numb.Īs mentioned, the book doesn't stop. It's jam packed with action scenes, and i had a good time reading it. There is no break, no slowing down, just one scary adventure after another, one battle after another, one person dying, another one injured, fighting, fires. I have a lot of good things to say about this book, but there was one thing that knocked what could've been a 7.5/10 to a 4/10.
