THE LORN TREE ( ARBOREGAL BOOK #1)

by Dumitru Sandru

3***

Hellferata - Medusa's bodyless soul still lives

Dracu Mort - Hellferatu's son to a goat.

The Lorns - people who live in a tree because "monsters" roam the ground on foggy nights

Michele - "The girl with the golden hair' - prophecy says she will destroy Hellferatu

Melissa, Nathan, and Perry - Michele's sister and friends. They were all transported to another universe.

Concept is interesting and all the elements are there for a good story (if you like mythology and alternate universe stories like I do). But something is missing for me. It drags a little and needs more excitement. Hopefully book 2 in the series steps it up and grabs my attention more.

This is a good read for preteens.
