"Miraden's Folly" draws you into a richly imagined world where every detail feels immersive and meaningful. The story follows Miraden, a young man on a daring quest to save the sister of the girl he is in love with. The sister has been taken by the mysterious and sinister Ashenkin, creatures who lurk in the shadows and are known for snatching away children. As Miraden travels deeper into this dark and dangerous world, we see him evolve from a thoughtful, somewhat naive boy into someone who understands his own strength and potential. Along the way, he meets a cast of intriguing characters who challenge and shape him, making the journey as much about self-discovery as it is about heroism. It’s not the greatest fantasy of all time, but it’s an adventure worth diving into if you’re looking for a story that’s both fun and heartfelt.

Dear Reader,

Prepare yourself for an exhilarating adventure told through dual points of view. Though certain parts may feel underdeveloped while others linger a bit too long, the journey is nonetheless captivating—well worth staying up late for. Fair warning, the author isn't shy about killing off characters, but there's also meaningful character growth, all leading to a suspenseful cliffhanger that will leave you eager for more.

Happy reading!

I like this story, it’s cute and it capitalises on using a lot of popular tropes to allow for mass appeal. It is not the only fantasy novel to do that as it is something that Rebecca Yarros does as well. This story doesn’t quite have the finesse of fourth wing at maximising the appeal but I full expect the author to grow and develop the skills to be able to create captivating fantasy stories that I will similarly enjoy reading at least as much as this
