From intricacies of plotting and scene-setting to character development, Beswick expanded his skill set as he poured his heart into the pages. Overall, this is a fairly short book but spans so much time and distance that the proper detail is not given.

I wasn't anticipating a super great story based on the first novel, but since I'd already downloaded it to my kindle I decided to nice it a try, and I was pleasantly surprised! How the horse, and the two female characters, are not dead from exhaustion and hyperthermia, I don't know. And the author tried to make us care for them, but we barely learned their names before they were out and we were left with a confusing death, some promise for vengeance and absolutely no background info on anyone. While the plot had potential, there wasn't enough substance to keep me guessing throughout my listen. But after witnessing her siblings' cruel deaths, she unleashes her powers for the first time and makes her escape.While the story is a new one, the world is the same and this familiarity provides a comfortable awareness to what goes on and what to expect. Right, positivos - the three leads, Zerina, Ulrik and Esara, carried my interest from start to finish. So when she and her sisters are dragged from their home and put on trial for witchcraft, she's horrified to be trapped between being enslaved in the king's forces or execution.

Although the book offers excellent world building and interesting characters, the story lacks excitement and seems to drag on, with only a few captivating action scenes. The ending was a bit of a surprise, and too rushed but definitely has me intrigued and happy to read on in the series.

While the concept for his first novel was conceived six years ago, it was the nightly ritual of crafting bedtime stories for his children that really empowered him to breathe life into it.

It was a smart choice on the author's part to focus on a totally different character within the world. These stories aren't especially long compared to some of the epics I am used to reading and I am quite enjoying the punchy style this author brings to the table.I am not familiar with the story of Blackbeard, but I'm assuming this is a prequel; how Blackbeard came about. That he then rides without pause to the capital, and then within an hour (I'm estimating) rides out of the capital with two additional people on it, to escape pursuit. A horse that 'bucks' twice in fifty pages without unseating its novice rider, and eats nothing but apples. A Sea of Sorrow and Scorn is the gripping second book in the Tales of Levanthria fantasy-retelling series. I was a little sceptical at first as I knew it was set in the same realm but a completely different story.
