Review: Raven Song

Raven Song by I.A. Ashcroft
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Cover: 4 out of 5 stars. I really like the cover on this book. I think it relates to the book and I like the stars inside the raven and the font for the title. I would pick up this book to try just based on the cover. [My reading copy was an ebook.]

This book was really good and I enjoyed reading it! It had action, mystery, suspense, violence, magic, and maybe a hint of romance to come. It seems to be several genres at once (science fiction, urban fantasy, and dystopia), which was interesting. I was pulled into the story easily and probably would have finished this book more quickly if it weren't an ebook (not my personal preference). There were a lot of interesting characters and I liked the character development for the most part. There were some side characters that definitely gave me the creeps! I do wish that I felt a bit more connection with the two main characters though. I'm not sure why because I felt they were well written, but I didn't feel that attached to them for some reason.

There were parts of the story and characters mentioned that left me with wanting more information about them, but since this is the first book in a 4 book series, I am hoping that any questions I have will be answered in the following books.

This first book had a sense of closure for the story at hand, which I definitely appreciate, but the ending was a promise of a new adventure in the next book. I will definitely want to read more of this series and would recommend to those who like these types of genres.

*Note: I received a free copy of this ebook in exchange for an honest review.
