A Flight of Broken Wings

A Flight of Broken Wings by Nupur Chowdhury
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I received a free copy of this book in exchange for a honest review. I have no connection to Nupur Chowdhury.

I very good book. An excellent story, it started a bit slow but this changed in the second half of the book. I wish there was a bit more action in the book, but I do see that Nupur chose story over action and I believe this was the correct choice.

The main character Ruban is not so much likable but I do like his development through out the book. I think giving characters their own issues to deal with and overcome makes the more of a hero.

The side characters are there for support and do their jobs, but do not add a great deal to the story. One thing I did really like about Nupur's writing was the way she added her own cultural references to the book. I always like when an author does this, it adds a bit authenticity to the book.

The story. 600 years ago humanity defeated an immortal race called the Aeriels. Now to them the only good Aeriel is a dead Aeriel. However the Aeriels have not been idle, and with their immortality they are in for the long haul. Though are all the Aeriels the same?

This is a great story, a little slow to begin with, but that is more to do with empire building. I would be interested to see what happens next or more of Nupur's writings.
