I had really high hopes for this story when I started it. I was hoping for a creepy story steeped in a new mythology. While I got a teensy bit of the mythology part, the creepy never came into play. The story was almost stagnant for a long time, with nothing happening but weirdo boys and girls, drinking in a graveyard, reading tarot cards. 
 The characters were two-dimensional, at best. Stephen, the MC, was dull and angsty and sullen. He whined a lot, and was angry a lot. The other characters were almost lifeless, even the twins who were such a huge part of the story. 
 The plot itself was almost too easy to figure out, with the exception of a surprise thrown in at the end. The ending made the story a lot better. The ending was where all of the heart of the story was packed. I wish that the rest of the story had been made up of the stuff the ending was made of. 
 I HATE writing negative reviews. I really, really do. But I really did go into this one expecting a great story, and it didn't turn out that way. I do think there are readers out there who will absolutely love it though. So please give it a shot. Me? I am going to keep waiting for Legacy of Tril #2, hoping it happens one day. Soulbound was amazing, and that is the Heather Brewer I am sticking to!
