I’m not generally a fan or reader of fantasy, but a friend suggested that I might enjoy this story and the writer’s craftmanship. I ordered a copy, and it sat for two weeks before I opened it up. Immediately intrigued, I read as fast as time allowed. The first impression was of warmth and comfort, not fear of the unknown. Ravin, while brash and ballistic, helped me relax, and I immediately liked her. She, her mother, and several unexpected allies face an evil man, a demonic man. Despite the dangerous places, Ravin finds herself; the writer manages to extricate her in the most believable maneuvers.
The story was for a younger crowd, but as a senior citizen, I was pleased beyond what I could ever imagine. Reading the last line found me furious. I wanted more, and I wanted it now.
I recommend Into Madness to readers of ages and levels.
