It seems that the âdystopianâ view on the world really is one of the few book style (together with historic novels) that I have to be very careful in choosing. I just finished Sarah Fineâs âServants of Fateâ books â Marked, Claimed and Fated. Drawn in by the interesting plot I started reading but felt it hard to connect to the characters. While the writing is good and flawless, I somehow could not understand certain parts of this world that Ms. Fines drew for the readers. I am not sure what the reason is that it is easy for me to follow a book with a paranormal creature in a contemporary setting , yet so very hard to imagine anything in a dystopian setting.Still the plot kept me going and finishing and Fans of Dystopian worlds will surely truly love this book I believe. So please do not hesitate to read this book if youâre a Fan as the writing and storyline is very good.
