Neverwraith by Arianna Isabella
Did not finish book. Stopped at 3%.
I didn't notice this book is 1,000 pages until I looked down at the percentage on my Kindle. I received this as an arc.
The writing doesn't make much sense. In the beginning I had trouble understanding where characters were(ex. There's a sword fight but the two main characters have time to pause and talk? Even one of them pausing to place his hand on the others shoulder?) and what anyone's motivation was. It seemed like haste and drama was trying to be expressed...but what soecifically? Idk.
I was annoyed with the introduction of the dragons. It was pointed out quickly that Smee knowing a dragon on a first name basis was a really big deal. But then a page later we are introduced to more dragons only by their first names! So is it a big deal or no? What are the dragons full names?
Other editing issues like Mournblade suddenly finding out Smee has a daughter and being totally shook by this info and yet somehow in the next sentence knowing his daughter's name. That doesn't make sense.
I rarely read 1,000 page books and if I'm going to I have to know that I enjoy the authors writing. Especially after reading reviews that say this somehow leaves off on a cliff hanger?? I think this needs rounds of editing and made to be a series or something. No way a thousand page book should leave on a cliffhanger.
