Worth reading 😎

A fun, fast paced fantasy with a magical world and enjoyable characters worth reading

Dawn lives a quiet, happy life in a small village. She has a family who loves her and close friends to keep her company. She hasn't traveled outside of her village but she hasn't minded because she's happy. Everything changes when her little village and family are attacked and left for dead. Dawn is now on her own and will need to make friends and allies in order to navigate her way through a world she has yet to truly experience.


She meets up with Cain and Ragnar who are what is known as Reavers. These are people who uphold justice and protect the land. Dawn sets off on an adventure with the two of them as she tries to connect with her only remaining relative, her aunt who lives in a far away city. On the way she will have to face danger, enemies, and most of all, herself.


Reflection is a high fantasy adventure full of magic, interesting creatures, and compelling action. What is most interesting is that the characters in the story don't automatically resort to violence to solve their troubles and there are some characters who really think about what it means to take a life. That's refreshing to see in a fantasy book as oftentimes there is action without consequences in these kinds of stories.


There was room for a bit more character growth for some of the characters and there were times when the world didn't feel as fully built as it could have been. But the story is satisfying to the reader and there is a lot of potential for this as a series. The characters are enjoyable to read about and there is a sense of fun in this world.


If you like fantasy books with lots of magic in it like Lord of the Rings or The Wheel of Time series, you'll find this an enjoyable book worth reading.

I am an avid reader. I love books and discovering something new to recommend to people. I love epic fantasy and horror the most but I will read anything as long as it is good quality.
