A Song of Wraiths and Ruin (A Song of Wraiths and Ruin, #1)

by Roseanne A. Brown

[Amber (The Literary Phoenix)]

I am always here for a rich fantasy world, and A SONG OF WRAITHS AND RUIN has that in spades. This novel bubbles with darkness - desperation, blood, and vengeance run rivers of red through the streets of this city, and I loved it.

Well, by the end, I loved it.

Fact of the matter is that the pacing in this book is really fast and it took me for a ride. There were bumps along the way - every road has bumps - but by the end, I'm singing the praises of A SONG OF WRAITHS AND RUIN like everyone else. The world here is so cool and I wish I could have spent more time with the world and not just running around with Karina and Malik, but there will be other books for that. The ending itself wrapped up everything with a new emerald ribbon while also opening a Pandora's box of nightmares to contend with in book two. Whatever complaints I had while reading were resolved by the end, and with the new turn of events, I seriously can't wait for the next one. It's going to be a wild ride.
