Rating : 9.7/10📚✔️

Author : Ben Van Eijk @vaneijkart

Swevender was a gigantic floating city, constructed and raised by three powerful conjurers, thousands of years ago. Io was the youngest of the three, the spell of Io kept a cloud just beneath, and constantly within reach, of the city. It was the city's main energy source and many citizens were adept in the art of 'water weilding'. To the residents of Swevender, they were floating on an endless sea of fog. There was no fate worse than falling over the city's edge. 

Seth Cost, an honest, energetic and somewhat rebellious young man of twenty two years of age had been chosen to help perform the annual magical ritual consisting of three major spells. Seth was happy to get the chance to cast Io's spell for the ritual but he had to rush back home to get the scroll which he thought he had forgotten. When he came out of his home's door, Swevender was falling apart!

Seth tried his best to bind falling part with city's central part which was still higher and floating but he couldn't do it. He was sinking and going closer and closer to the abyss. What does the future behold for Seth? Will he be able to go back to Swevender?

What an excellent read this book had been for me! Kudos to author's imagination, he has written an amazing tale filled with fantasy and adventure. There are so many things I loved about this book, the world building was great, all the info about Swevender in the initial pages worked successfully to engage me as a reader and then the turn of events was more than enough to keep me engaged, it was just so gripping and fascinating.

All the characters are so well written, especially that of Seth and the writing style is so great, some of the scenes ran before my eyes like a movie, it was written in a perfectly detailed manner. I just loved this book and would definitely recommend it.
