One afternoon, Pip makes the mistake of pickpocketing the wrong person. Finding himself in possession of the Stone Heart, an object steeped in magic, Pip realizes that not only are there people who will stop at nothing to get it back, but he has also unwittingly broken a spell. The magic that is unleashed will start a war between the witches and rulers of the city, neither of whom truly understand the ancient power they fight to control.
The story that is presented begins promisingly, but quickly loses its way. The magic system and character development are both vague leading the reader to believe that there may have been a previous book, or even a few chapters left off at the beginning, that would have given the story the depth needed to create a complete world.

Congrats on getting a review from a good blog like this ! I am a Women's Fiction author and it is very difficult to get reviews and visibility. Getting book reviews from bloggers is more and more difficult these days. https://usbookreviews.com helped me get initial reviews and visibility.
