i think this was for false gods by don newton, it was an ok book. I don't remember too much from it but it was an ok read.

It was a struggle to try and finish this one even though I wanted to. I ended up DNFing this one about halfway through. There wasn't much connection to the story which didn't allow me to want to continue on.

Oh, this was quite fun!

The characters were really great and well developed! The world building was also very nicely done, without needing too much exposition. The dialogue was very believable and it flows well.

The plot was exciting and with some nice twists that were very fun to read! I really enjoyed it.

I want to preface that I was initially really excited about this book- I liked the concept of the summary and book cover and I generally, for the most part, loves this type of genre. However, I struggled in reading this book. The author did a great job of being very descriptive. As a reader though, I lacked an connection to the characters. I failed in discerning what the character's motives or desires were. Essentially I felt like I was missing substantial history that could have enriched the reader's world perspective. This felt more like a book two as it jumped into action ready scenes. The characters appear to be very well thought out and had good dialogue but I was missing an initial spark to catch my attention so I could grow attached to the characters. There fore I would rate this a 2 out of 5 stars. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book from NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

False Gods by Don Newton, simply a failed book for me. It didn't capture me nor draw me in to enjoy it and I struggled to want to turn the page. I can see how others would like it though. Thank you for giving me a chance with this book.

I enjoyed reading this book but found at times I was jarred out of the story by the similarities to certain popular sci-fi and fantasy franchises. I also believe there could of been more character development as I felt the key characters lacked depth. Having said that, I liked the basic premise and think that the scope of the idea could lead to a good series of books. Overall, an enjoyable read and I would come back for more.
