Dear Seanilicious,

This was a glorious adventure. Much like any and all Nic Cage movies.

Seriously though, have you seen Deadfall? It’s the worst best movie, ever. Everyone else plays their characters straight and then there’s my mate Nic just going full retard on his character, it’s fucking epic. But anyway….. I digress…..

Let’s talk about the book!

❤ LOVES ❤

This book made me wish I could be a half-elf bard called Heloise when I grow up.

Heloise is my homegirl. Lady got mad skillz. I chuckled out loud on public transport many a time whilst reading this wonderful adventure. Heloise’s inner monologue and her banter with her fellow adventurers was excellent.

Grimple was great. I really appreciate all the references to Grimple’s *club* that you put in there, Seanilicious. You’re simply gagging for me to write more fanfiction, aren’t you?

This story was very well paced and took believable turns, thanks in part to the readers of the serial on Goodreads. I managed to cast my vote in a few chapters and it was really nice to be able to see the way the story came to life thanks to the input of Sean’s legion of rabid fans.

There’s enough social commentary in here to show you the moral compass of the man behind the creation, one of my favourite truth bombs as follows:

“Your overly simplistic binary gender constructs place too many constraints on what and who we are and can be.”

This was my face when I realised I had come to the end of the book:

But then this was my face when I read that there is going to be a sequel….

A thoroughly enjoyable adventure, I can’t wait for more from my love Heloise.

If there was a self-love scene and some mint-chocolate-chip ice cream in this it would have been five stars. Something to focus on next time around perhaps, Seanilicious?

4 is-the-technical-term-actually-a-grope-of-orcs? Stars

I am friends with Seanilicious. This has not influenced my rating in any way as I was not bribed with mint-chocolate-chip ice cream. I also happily paid money for this bad boy, because I’m all about supporting indie authors. I will read any and all the words you write, Sean. Much love.
