The Forgotten Book Review
Even though The Forgotten is a part of a series, you can read it as a standalone. You won’t feel as if you are missing out on something.
The title, The Forgotten, is very apt. It correlates with what is written in the story. Though, I think they could have used a different cover to make it look a bit more appealing.
The characters in the story are also very convincing. Throughout the story, you can feel their emotions and relate to them. Also, not many characters were introduced, which is good. The description of the characters is also perfect.
One more thing I liked about this book is its plot. The mystery and the suspense in the plot are exactly as I preferred, neither too much nor too little. It kept my attention till I finished reading it.
Also, the narration of this book is amazing. It keeps you connected to the story. Though I found the starting bit confusing, it became clear after a few chapters.
The pace of The Forgotten is also right; neither too fast nor too slow.
And, the part I liked the most in this book is the ending. It is full of action and is described perfectly. It was really fun and adventurous.
If you liked Angels and Demons, Deception Point, or any other book like this, then you might like this book.
