Review excerpt:
“At first, I worried that Adia and I were not going to mesh well– her relationship with her boyfriend seemed a bit too clingy for my tastes, but once she was off into the world of Arcania itself, things changed. Adia became a character that I loved. She was frustrated with her seeming inability to master her new Arcania, but didn’t become whiny. She worked her butt off for every little thing she got and won me over easily as I got to know her.”

Overall rating: 4/5. Took me by surprise, but I’m looking forward to the next installment.
