Rebirth: War of Shadows

Our first book was Rebirth: War of Shadows by Tyler Golec. Tyler is a friend of mine, and so we decided to start the year off with this book.




Rebirth had an amazing premise. It was a world of magic set in our world in some potential future. The world had fallen apart and war had torn everything apart. The USA was divided into New America and the RUSA (Republic of the United States of America), and the two factions were at war. The main characters are discovering magic, and dealing with the Civil War. 
The story is interesting, and the idea is great, but the book could benefit from a lot of revision and editing. It's definitely a first draft, and I'd love to see an edited version. -Cat


It's a shame that the revision this book sorely needs most likely is not coming, because I really like the story concept. It's a brilliant idea bogged down by mechanical errors and missed opportunities. That isn't to say that I didn't enjoy it, just that I could have enjoyed it quite a bit more.-Mikie


The next book we're reading is Six of Crows, by Leigh Bardugo, we start today!
