Right from the beginning of this book, I was hooked. The deep and interesting storyline made me want to keep reading. It takes a lot for a book to get my interest that well, and Cycle of Hatred delivers. The many unique characters and plot twists kept me on the edge of my seat, wondering what would happen next. The book also tells the history of Kalimdor and how the orcs and humans developed their great hatred for each other, which doesn?t leave me wondering. The author does a great job of letting the reader get to know the characters. The fight scenes are also detailed and exciting. The situations in the book were obviously not realistic (its a fantasy book), but the ways the characters handled the situations seem realistic and believable. Overall, this book is great, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who?s looking for a great fantasy read.
