My Review
5 Stars

I received a complimentary copy in exchange for an honest review.

Awakened is a wonderful story that will pull you into a magical realm and not let go.

Fantasy genres have always been my go-to reading material because they transport me into such amazing worlds and Awakened did just that. Regnaryn believes herself to be the last human in the magical world see lives in but soon learns that to be untrue. I really enjoyed following this story because I do not come across many like it and Caffrey constructed it with such great skill.

The transitions between the different points of view were easy to follow and did not leave me confused as to who's thoughts I was currently reading. There are many characters that get introduced to you throughout the story, but I found them easy enough to keep up with. Their names were a bit difficult to figure out but after reading fantasy for so long I am used to this and tend to say it in my head however I can. 

All-in-all I greatly enjoyed this story and look forward to reading the rest of the trilogy. I cannot wait to see what Caffrey bring to the table in book 2.  



AUTHOR BIO

I was born and raised in New York, mostly on Long Island not “The City”. After high school, I moved to California and then did a three-year stint in the Navy before going to college and getting a Microbiology/Medical Technologist degree.
According to my Dad, I’ve been a storyteller from the time I began talking (which was at a very young age). But, it wasn’t until a few years ago that I decided to take my passion for writing and my love for all things magical or mythical seriously and set out to write fantasy novels.

When I’m not at my day job or writing, I enjoy creating and wearing costumes (cosplay), playing video games (though, I’m not very good at it) and watching NHL hockey and assorted other things many of which are merely time wasters. Of course, hanging out with my friends and my cats also pleasantly fills my time.
