The Sacrifice (Dragonpets Book 1) by R. L. S. Hoff – Review by Jenni Bishop

The Sacrifice by R.L.S. Hoff
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

3 stars

The Sacrifice is the first book in this YA fantasy series, Dragonpets. R.L.S. has written for a targeted audience of young adults though sometimes, it felt that the story was for an even younger audience, older teenagers.

The plot is an interesting idea and has a potential to be so much more. The characters could be fleshed out/developed a little more giving us more of an understanding of who they are and where they come from. With more depth to them as people/creatures making them easier to relate to. The world building also needs to be explored/developed more. All in all, there were a lot of unanswered questions for me as a reader.

The expectation for some intensity, suspense or even some intrigue never came made it hard to remain fully focused and present with what was going on. As this is the first book in the series, I am hopeful this will happen. It may just be my age that I could not fully relate to or immerse myself in the story.

If you are a YA and love Dragons and magical creatures give this one a go.
