Incredible. I am astounded.

First off, have you seen the cover art? Come on, look at it. Look at it! It's gorgeous! According to an old adage, we must not judge a book by its cover, but for this one, you may openly do so: the contents are as beautiful as the cover!

Falling Kingdoms is like an MMORPG coming to life. Which basically translates to "all my dreams coming true" since I was a casual gamer. It is set in a distant land, divided into kingdoms, and ruled by royalty. There is war, bloodshed, and of course, magic! ...oh, and also romance. There's romance but it's not the sickening kind. What a relief.

I love how many characters there are! The book even has a "Cast of Characters" section so we won't get lost! If handled well (and judging by this first book, the author is doing great so far), more characters offer a magnificent story since there are more personalities to play and mess around with. And don't get me started with their land! They have a map! I highly appreciate it when the author is able to come up with a fictional world with such a rich history pervaded with myths and legends. Ooohh, just thinking about all the possibilities for this series is making me giddy and excited.

If I were to be honest, I am quite shocked I've only found this book now. It's a hidden treasure buried in all the other more popular fiction books and I am so pleased to have accidentally dug it up. It's fate! But in all seriousness, it deserves all the gushing and praises out there and I intend to tell everyone I know, whether they want to hear it or not, about it.

Sorry, not sorry. x
