Customer Reviews

Starts off good

The beginning of the story was great. It seemed like a good plot, but took a turn for the worst when Spirits gave birth to a deformed child. I wanted the author to create a more intimite relationship between Spirits and White Serpent, instead of an unrenounced love for one another. It would have given me more empathy towards White Serpent when he returns to Mother-Father. As much as I wanted to, I couldn't develop a connection with White Serpent. There were a lot of twists and betrayal in this story, you can't help but finish the book. I never read a book where one of the characters was part man and part God. It was a bit strange for me because he was suppose to be one of the main characters and it was hard for him to develop a relationship with Spirits because of his Godlyhood. I thought the ending could have been better and Spirits could have had some kind of luck in the story. She had no family, her husband casted her out of the royal pavilion, her sister was her worst enemy, she gave birth to a deformed Prince, and her true love left her. In the end a whole city is destroyed.
