Hidden Realm
"Author T. R. Slauf has crafted a fantastical and truly
imaginative work of fiction with a perfect balance of
familiarity and originality to offer its audience. In terms
of its presentation of character, I found that the use of
close narration creates a deeper emotional resonance, and
brings readers right into the center of the action with Esther
as their guide. Emotive and passionate with a strong theme
of self-discovery, this is a tale that feels immersive and cinematic in every aspect of its presentation. What results is an atmospheric start to what promises to be a very engaging series, filled with clever twists, exciting action scenes, and plenty of surprises despite being on familiar ground. Overall, I would highly recommend Hidden Realm to fans of dark fairytale atmospheres, heartfelt character presentations, and fans of enigmatic fantasy fiction everywhere."

The story of Hidden Realm is one that is full of mystery and captivating moments. All of this and more is perfectly weaved together into an incredibly entertaining story and this is thanks to the phenomenal author T.R. Slauf who from beginning to end thrills me with her in-depth and compelling literature and brilliant characters!

"Amazing! This was not not at all what I thought. It's everything I love. Fast pace, sinister, creepy mental institution. And some gore thrown in for good measure! I will probably read this one again!"
