The world building and character building was excellent. The two main protagonists of the novel are - Vivian, an 18 year old newly coronated queen, who was attacked by immortal assassins, which resulted her being infected by the immortality; and Carina an orphan girl who was brought up by the sisters in a convent. The story is a mix of science fiction and fantasy. So, it may seem confusing at the beginning. But as on reading more, the reader get immersed in the book. Also, the story is somewhat slow-paced. However, on reading me, he story picks the reader's curiosity. Especially the second part of the story is very interesting as it gains more speed and there are numerous twists and turns. In short, this book exposes us to a new world full of adventure, fantasy, science, problems, betrayals and heartbreaks....more

Each and every small item in astrology is explained really well. The constellations, tables and charts are drawn pretty well. The only flaw that I felt in this book was that it was like a textbook that only people who are really engrossed in astrology could understand. And also I would have liked it even more if the constellations, charts and tables were given alongside the explanation. Overall, it was a very nice book that every astrologer or budding astrologer should have. I thank Netgalley and the publisher for giving me this opportunity....more

I love the story, the world builI just download the book and read it with the help of an e-reader, and I have to say, THIS BOOK WAS REALLY AMAZING!!! I love the story, the world building and above all I love Aardriyah! Aardriyah is exactly the kind of person who deserves to be the protagonist of story. Thank goodness it's a series and not a stand-alone, 'cause I just want more and more stories of Aardriyah. In short, this book is a beautifully written adventurous, emotional, intriguing, nostalgic, thrilling YA (though people of any age group would love it) novel. I am just waiting for the next books in this series. I highly recommend this book to everyone. I sincerely thank NetGalley and the author R J Kaldanis for giving me such a wonderful opportunity and intruding this worthy read to me!...more

I was disappointed in this novel. The story is just too much into detail. The main protagonist of the story is Ivy, a front desk clerk at a hotel 1911I was disappointed in this novel. The story is just too much into detail. The main protagonist of the story is Ivy, a front desk clerk at a hotel 1911, who has many problems (too many that I don't want to mention here). The story is too much focused around Ivy's illness. And although it is called described as a 'mystery' novel, I didn't find it mysterious at all. Overall, I would give this book 3.5/5....more
I requested this book because it has an amazing cover. Seeing the cover itself gave me chills! And the story! MY GOD! It is one of the scariest storiesI requested this book because it has an amazing cover. Seeing the cover itself gave me chills! And the story! MY GOD! It is one of the scariest stories I have ever read! I read the whole book in a single sitting, because I don't know what possessed me, I wasn't able to stop myself from turning the page. This book was so full of gothic horror that my whole body got goosebumps while I was reading it. This book is creepy, scary, frightening, terrifying, petrifying, daunting, disturbing, hair-raising, spine-chilling and what not. If anybody thinks that they can't be scared by anything in this world (or other world to be precise) give this book a try! But this book (according to me) has only one flaw: the slow pace. Apart from that this book is really good and I would recommend everybody to give it a try. P.s.- I hope the faceless boy isn't after me while I write this review...more
