From a writing standpoint, as far as prose and description and constructing a story out of sentences, this book isn't bad. From a story standpoint, as far as tension, characters, plot, this book is boring. I didn't care about any of the characters, the main character in particular. And while on the surface things happened--Liena discovers she has magic and goes to a school and has to fight people--nothing happened. There was no surprise in the discovery of magic, no tension or excitement in the fights. The secondary characters weren't really developed and the explanation of the magic and the kingdom was weak. Maybe it was going to get better as the story went on but there was nothing engaging to make me want to keep going with the story.
