Poor Writing

Disturbing child abuse that did not enhance the storyline. Disappointed with the writing style. Many simple similies on each page. After 4 chapters, I couldn't take it anymore. I read a lot of Historical Fiction. This book seemed like a rough draft version. There were even a few spelling mistakes. The Gate of Charisius was spelled incorrectly as was Theodora's older sister’s name. In the book it was not Comitona as recorded in historical documents. Seemed like a first novel written by a middle schooler.
