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.
