Well… i read this last year in fifth grade and i chose this book cos assassins are cool but i think i kinda rushed through it cause i borrowed it from the school library and if i reborrowed it it would be embarrassing cos i think my teacher and friends expect me to be better. also, it is sorta boring in the middle. at first it's okay, but then i lose concentration and had no idea what is going on. okay, i know, but it's sometimes confusing. and since the middle parts are kinda boring i rushed through the end, knowing even less about the story fully . i guess this is those kind of books you can't just skim the words and imagine all the images in your mind, like it is real. but still, it's great you should read it but try reading a little more slowly, word by word ( in case you missed something), Aron is forcibly taken from his family to become an apprentice to the Stone Guild. Yet being taken saves his life, because hours later the clan lord attacks his people and massacres hundreds including Aron’s family. Aron decides to use his time at the Stone Guild to train for avenging the murder of his family. In another clan, the last heir to the throne is pushed from the roof and left for dead. He is saved by another member of the Stone Guild. Stone will help them train their undiscovered abilities and put their world back together. [return][return]This was a fantastic book. I couldn’t put it down. The world building is strong and rich and I was invested in the story really quickly. The viewpoint switches between a few different characters, which took a little getting used to, but each character is so engaging that I didn’t mind. Everyone’s motivations were realistic and compelling. I loved the twist that even though Stone has a bad reputation, they are honorable and will probably be pivotal in saving the world. Be prepared that the story is a cliffhanger, but fortunately the second book is already available.

Started off slow, but I'm glad I stuck with it because now I cannot wait to see what happens!
