The first three books have been very entertaining and proven to be an exciting read. The story line should be more than able to sustain several books within the series and I look forward to reading on... I give it a three star rating only because the editing and proofing was subpar. Phrases and even paragraphs tend to be redundant at times and there are missing words from time to time that tend to be "unprofessional".
Love these!!

The little promotional review mention some really amazing serial authors as comparisons for Morgan Rice and that blurb could not have been a bigger falsehood. Poor character development, horrid pacing and nonsensical story development are the only things that come to mind after having finished these three books, which I immensely regret purchasing. I can't recommend this series at all for anyone looking for a truly immersive read.

Poor character and story development. No depth to the novels. Possibly suited to preteen fiction.
Good story

The story was well written and kept me interested. There were some flaws in the way the author approached certain aspects of the story line such as, ( a 100 day tournament to win a bride) without some reason for a jousting competition to take 100 days seems ridiculous. On top of the fact that the competition was to win a bride, and the competitors were able to choose who in the town they were competing for, so what was the point of competing? I often found myself thinking that the author sounded like a good ole boy male chauvinist, despite being a women. Another disappointment was the way the individual books were left as cliff hangers. It is written like a television series not a novel, i assume that is to sell more books, which is sad and disingenuous in my opinion. Made me think Game Of Thrones for kids. The author also vilified homosexuals, and alcoholics not something i personally appreciated. Im waiting for the authors good versus evil storyline to start openly selling christianity, i hope it doesn't come down to that. Her characters are well written and multifaceted. The story line was basically good and made me want to read more. I think with a good publisher she could be great. As an adult professional who enjoys reading stories for children for the simplicity of pure entertainment, im not sure i would want my children to relate with some of these characters and values.

Let me preface this review by saying these are not horrible books.
They're mostly readable, but they have no depth. The characters are one dimensional and clichéd. The plot is contrived. What I mean by this, is that it'll illogical. The peoples' reactions don't quite make sense, and you can tell the obstacles are thrown in for cheap dramatic effect. There is no resonance of realism. There is only stereotypical good guys against a myriad of stereotypical bad guys.
Another irritating thing about these books is they have no resolution, no conclusion. A cliffhanger ending is too generous a description, they simply cut off in the middle of the books dramatic climax. There's not even a sentence or two to indicate the end of the book. It's just more cheap tricks to get people to buy the next book.
The blurb in the description mentions several excellent authors as comparisons, but there is no comparison. I bought this book with high hopes because of that blurb, but Morgan Rice works lacks exactly what makes those authors special. I really tried to like these books, but by the third one I just couldn't stand it anymore and gave up.
Once again, they are not horrible books. They are just depthless. They are fine for beginners, or young adults. The category should be listed as children's fiction, not epic fantasy.
Simply magical!

Been looking for a good fantasy/magical series and I finally found it!! These books are easy to read and I found myself quite attached to the characters. I found myself having a hard time putting this book down, I just want to keep on reading and get lost in the characters' story. I love the way Morgan writes and i hope she will keep on writing ...
Warning TYPO alert! Still a good easy read

This story is great so far... But I have found many spelling errors and grammatical error! It's frustrating to have to re read passages to make your own mental corrections.. Just a warning! Probably better to get the hard copy of these stories!
loved it!
