I found The Solar Realm to be really interesting, but it did feel somewhat off in the pacing - either way too slow or too much happening at once. There was okay world building, but I really would have loved a bit more. The characters were interesting and had some development but didn't feel all that unique.

Imaginative scifi with great world building! Multiple points of view keeps the story moving quickly. It was hard to put down!

I received Arc from netgalley for my honest review.

Unfortunately couldn’t get into this book. Just wasn’t for me. The writing style just wasn’t for me to be honest. DNF

I immensely enjoyed the Solar Realm. It reminded me a bit of Star Wars but then with magic and more whimsical elements.

The book had a good concept; however, it sometimes felt a bit slow, but the pace did pick up. When the pace does pick up, the tension is high and exciting to read. The world-building was good, however a bit chunky at times nonetheless; without it wouldn't have been so immersive.
I liked the characters, and you could clearly see the development of them throughout the book, which is interesting to read. The multiple points of view were very enjoyable, and you could distinctly pull apart who was who and made sure each of the characters was developed equally to some level.
I also really enjoyed the dragons since, let's be honest, who does like dragons?

An enchanting multiple POV world that will keep you on your toes and engaged. Some may find the MPOVs to be challenging, stick with the story. This is a world of dreams and threats. The main character has to face her destiny and be prepared to fight any threats that oppose this. It is the first of the series, be sure to prepare your minds accordingly.

I don't even know how to start this review. I was really surprised. At first I was having a hard time getting hooked on the reading because you are introduced to a whole new world and plenty of characters without much detail, so at first you have a hard time understanding what is going on.
Once you get deeper into the book, you discover more about both of them. Sometimes it didn't help much that there were so many points of view, but the more you read, the better it got. I genuinely love the multiple POVs from different characters, and in this story, it was not an exception.
I also loved that from the beginning, it has a very fast pace, which makes you want to keep reading, but this is maintained throughout the reading. The amount of emotions that it generated me throughout the reading were too many.
Also the ending was amazing and in an inconclusive way so it makes you want to continue reading about the story and what the characters will do next.
Thanks to Netgalley, the publisher and the author for providing me with a digital copy of the book :)
