5.0

In this book we follow Gem Echols as they realise their life is not as it seems. Gem is the reincarnated God of magic...this may seem pretty cool until they also find out that the other gods have a few deep-rooted grudges against them.

I was vividly entertained throughout the entirety of this book and found it to be a pretty swift read. 
The plot in itself was really well drawn up and executed with plenty of thought going into it. The characters were really well developed and had dimension. 
The only character that fell a little flat for me at first was Enzo, he was a little predictable.

I loved H.E. Edgmon's depiction of the gods and their home world, the Ether, although I will admit I'd love to know more about it and feel as though, in the next books, I might be able to do just that. 

Being inside Gem's mind was certainly an experience. They had so many conflicting emotions when it came to making some of the greater decisions and I feel everything was portrayed splendidly. I cannot wait to see what comes next for Gem and the others but I can only guess it is not going to be an easy journey.

All in all, I really enjoyed this book!
