PERSONAL REVIEWS
Another masterstroke by J.K .I really can’t believe how one can make a totally new world?!I  really enjoyed the book a lot and couldn’t keep the book down. I was totally mesmerized by the book and wished I just got to know what was going to happen next. The characters are really amazing and our protagonist has been shown simple not some hero pre-loaded with a lot of powers. I would rate the book 5 stars out of 5.
