Set in England during the Black Plague of 1349, this historical fantasy brings the superstitions of the time to life � think angels and demons, druid seers and warriors, prophecy and power, and a rising darkness only the light can stand against.
The book has already been soft-released on Amazon (available now in eBook and paperback), but I’m preparing for a final, polished re-release in 4 weeks, a month before the second book The Shadows of Darkness will be released—and I want to make it the best it can be. (I’ll be sending sign up forms for the second book “The Shadows of Darkness� soon.)
I’m looking for beta readers who can read the full novel within 2-3 weeks and give feedback on specific story elements (don’t worry—grammar isn’t one of them).
What kind of feedback I need:
� Pacing � Did any parts drag or feel rushed?
� Plot clarity � Were there confusing or unrealistic moments?
� Character development � Did the characters feel real and compelling? Who were your favorite, not so favorite and what you wished to see more from them? If anything.
� Emotional engagement � Did you feel something? Were certain scenes powerful (or not)? What was your favorite scene? (I know mine 😉) What was your least and why?
� Continuity � Did anything feel like a plot hole or unfinished thread such as unresolved mysteries or moments??
� Dialogue � Did the conversations flow naturally? Any awkward spots?
� World-building � Did the setting and magic feel immersive and clear?
You don’t need to worry about grammar or sentence structure. I want to know what moved you, what confused you, what made you turn the page or want to stop.
Trigger Warnings:
It has a suicide attempt scene (failed) and graphic violence
There are limited spots so I can really take in each person’s feedback—so if this sounds like you, please sign up below! Available Formats: ePub, PDF, Word on BookFunnel or I can email it to you.
