GENERAL PICTURE 20/20
- Color - Reading experience 10/10
The book has its own color and identity, which is mainly evident in the unique world that has been created. The different groups, characters and their relationships make the story not limited to just a simple adventure, but creates an entire world that the reader wants to explore.
The reading experience is made even more interesting by Elli's attempt to understand what is happening with her dreams and by the mystery surrounding Queen Helada. The alternation between Elli's present and Helada's past adds another layer to the story and makes the reader want to put the pieces together.
-Emotions it evokes 5/5
The book manages to evoke many different emotions. There is curiosity, especially around Elli's dreams, Hellada, and the secrets of the past. There is anxiety and fear when Miedo appears and the group finds themselves faced with danger.
At the same time, the relationships between the characters add friendship, tenderness, humor, and romance. Thus, the story is not based on a single emotion. The reader can feel anxiety about what will happen, curiosity about the revelations, but also become emotionally attached to the characters.
- Creativity 5/5
Creativity is one of the book's greatest strengths.
A unique world has been created with different groups and characters, while the story combines fantasy, mystery, adventure, relationships and twists.
Particularly interesting is Elli's connection to the dead Queen Helada through dreams. The fact that Helada's story is presented through separate chapters and her own perspective makes the past function like a piece of the puzzle that must be solved.
Also, Brillar, who initially seems like just a light guiding Elli but later turns out to be hiding something much bigger, is a very powerful idea and could lead to one of the most important twists in the story.
