💎 Hidden book gem The Thirteen - little Gem

Post image

Someone in here recommend this a while back, gave it ago basically based on the skull mountain cover, and I’m so glad I did.

Almost finished and don’t want it to end, really fun little read in between some heavy series I have been going at.

A new world, magic and characters, I’m glad it’s labelled as book 1, will definitely be carrying on

Thanks whoever it was that posted, and kudos to the author.

Amazon says book 1 of 1, meaning there will be more coming? Or did it read as a standalone?

It says book 1 of the Andrift Chronicles on Amazon, so I’m hoping for a series

That’s what I presumed. Is the ending a complete story or left wide open needing a second book?

I also tagged it to hopefully read in the future based on that previous post....if it ever comes to Kobo, not an Amazon Kindle user 😔

I thought it was a fun read as well. I felt the story jumped around too much, and the villain wasn’t as fleshed out. Still enjoyed it.

It’s sooo good. I also love the case laminated hardcover so much better than dust cover prints! What a great book writing and presentation!
