Book review "The glimpses of Aetherna" is a fantasy book, written by Vera Kamsha, journalist and fantasy writer, known for her series of books called "Cronics of Arcia" The action takes place in fiction world Aetherna. According to prehistory it was saved by a four of Masters from sunset beasts. Later the Masters gave their power to four representers of humans, sience then they are called as Masters of elements. But a bloody strife happened between those Masters and one of them cursed others... Several thousands of years had gone away and at the change of centures something holding an entire world had broken and Roke Alva, Marsel Walme and others realised that it's rolling down to sunset... What is I liked mostly is a vivid language of an author. It doesn't let you to get bored: irony and a good sense of humor are great. A plot of this book is similar to a whirpool, it catches a reader and pulling deeper and deeper. I strongly recommend reading this masterpiece, making you diving into another magic universe, which will remain forever in your heart. Believe me, it's worthing money and time!

"The glimpses of Aetherna" is a fantasy book, written by Vera Kamsha, a journalist and fantasy writer, known for her series of books called "The Chronicles of Arcia"

The action takes place in the fictional world of Aetherna. According to prehistory it was saved by a four of the Masters of the sunset beasts. Later the Masters gave their power to four representers of humans, since then they have been called 'Masters of the Elements'. But a bloody strife happened between those Masters and one of them cursed the others... Several thousands of years had gone by and at the turn of the centuries something holding an entire world had broken and Roke Alva, Marsel Walme and others realised that it was rolling down to sunset...

What is I liked mostly is the vivid language of the author. It doesn't let you get bored: the irony and a good sense of humor are great. The plot of this book is similar to a whirpool, it catches the reader and pulls them in deeper and deeper.

I strongly recommend reading this masterpiece, allowing you to dive into another magical universe, which will remain forever in your heart. Believe me, it's worth your money and time!

 

Hello Danil,

 

A nice review of an interesting sounding book. The main problem you seem to have is with 'a' and 'the' which is very common with Russian speakers.

'A/an' = 1 (of many) and 'the' refers to a concrete item. So Vera Kamsha is one of many journalists in the first paragraph. But in the third paragraph we know which 'vivid language' you are talking about and now we know which author you are talking about, so you should use 'the'

 

Hope this helps
