I received an Arc copy from NetGalley and I am thankful for the opportunity to give an honest review.

First let me say that my initial reason for wanting to listen to this book was the cover. I love the cover. It’s beautiful. I had no idea what this story was about at all so I went in with only the expectation that this was a warrior type story located in Africa.

When I was listening I was totally shocked. I was lost at first on what I was hearing but then I went back to look at the synopsis of what I received. These are mini stories with many different angles. This is a Sci-fi/fantasy which I normally do not read or listen to.

The audio copy only says section 1, section 2…etc and does not list the title of the stories which I wish it would have. The narrators do say the titles in the beginning of them reading it (audio version) and so had to take note of that.

Although these stories were not ones I would read I appreciated the weaving of them. I was a little confused in them but I was able to use my imagination and go on the journey with each one. If you are a lover of fantasy you will love these stories. I gave this 4 stars because of the richness of the storytelling. I would have enjoyed this more if it was more of me but I didn’t want to rate this low because of that. I am fair and did enjoy many of the stories.
