This book could be described as genre-bending and maybe a good
introduction into fantasy for those used to reading romance or drama
stories. On the opposite end of the spectrum, it shows those fantasy
lovers that there is more to a story than fireballs and body counts. What
is really special about this book are the relationships that DeRosa created
within the pages. While it is a fantasy book, many times, all of the fantasy
elements melt away, and you forget that interaction happens between
elves, dwarves, and dragons because they all feel very human. It speaks
great volumes to the writer that can get readers to forget everything
else and focus on the dialogue between characters. There is a fair share
of action and adventure in this book, but the time between these scenes
is where this book stands out.
