This author has developed into a seriously fantastic story teller. Starting with her first book which wasn't very good, she has improved with every book. This one is captivating! I seldom can read a KU book without interspersing it with solitaire when I get frustrated. This one, I read straight through!

From the first book in the series to this one, you are captivated.  The stories are so well written, they just move you along, flow.  For me I can lose myself in the story and envision what is happening.  Sherri Bryan has a gift!

I cant articulate how intriguing this book is.  After reading Serafina and the Black Cloak, I was hooked.  I think it says a lot about the author when he can entertain both a 14yr old and a 42 yr old. This series is appropriate for the young, and young at heart!  Serafina and the Twisted Staff is such a visual delight.  It evokes the imagination immediately.  So detailed and easy to envision. I felt it was like watching a movie. I found myself having trouble putting the book down.  I am happily awaiting the third installment.  You will enjoy this book!

I do not know where to begin with writing a review, except to say that this book is brilliantly written, captivating, and in my all time favorite category of books I have read, and one I highly recommend.  Rarely do I begin a book and literally cannot put it down, which draws me in with suspense, intrigue, and curiosity.  It's like a magical mystery where one thing on top of another on top of another just keeps unfolding to the point where I have to keep reading to find out what is going to happen next, which I find to be absolutely satisfying.  The subject and time period adds to the flair and creativity.  I love how each character in the story speaks their own particular perspective and experience to the reader, and found that particularly imaginative by the author.  Ten stars on this one!

This is a very captivating story! I enjoyed every page! The story is told so descriptively and lyrically, that I had difficulty putting it down! And when I read the last page, I was surprised by the ending, and sad that the story was over.

I typically have a short attention span and usually have a difficult time reading more than a few pages of a book before I lose interest.  This wonderful book literally grabbed my interest immediately, and I quickly found that I couldn't put it down!  I also typically only like "real life" type stories, however I was completely drawn into this captivating book.  The difficult decisions having to be made by the main characters as the story unfolds leaves you truly pondering what you would do if handed a similar fate.  The author does an excellent job of describing every aspect of the characters as well as their surroundings and circumstances, giving you the feeling you are right there amongst them throughout their journey...highly recommend!

This one is awesome. Love how the protagonist had those goons where he wanted them, was VERY clever.  The creatures in this one give a great feel to the atmosphere of the place. Would definitely love to see more on this one too. Left me in a bit of a cliffhanger/what's-next kind of feel.

Getting lost in this world has been my favorite time of the day and I cannot wait to get home from work to see where the story leads :) Everything about this series is captivating and mesmerizing and the character details and plot are just awesome! Love, love love it!

I have to say this is one of the most creative story lines I've read! The characters are well built and loveable. But the storyline is what captured my attention and left me wanting more.
Definitely one to check out!

I loved this one! Art basis I find fun read, but characters drew me right in. Narrating main character was unusual psychologically, giving it an extra layer of interest. Fascinating and grabbed my empathy. Story was very suspenseful; can't wait to read another in this series! Don't miss it!

Melinda's book captivates the reader and takes us into a world that we can start to see, feel and almost touch. She pulls us into the mystery and before long, we feel as if we are living the story along with the heroine. I was reading this book on a plane during a red-eye flight.. The flight attendant must have noticed how captivated I was because she was eager to know what I was reading!
