Sydney & Sakura: Inferno Rift

I'll admit, I haven't read much fiction in a long while and Sydney/Sakura's adventure was exactly the right segue for me to get back into long form storytelling. The characters were well drawn, and the author hit the right notes in describing the action, the relationships and (as a foodie) the many meals scattered through the tale like candy. Grab this one for the young adult in your life, they'll enjoy it as much as I did. Looking forward to part 2.

As a fellow writer, I greatly appreciate Chambers' ability to give life to characters. Her descriptions of typical appeal down to quirky individual traits made me feel like I was occupying a shared room space. Chambers has a talent for storytelling that kept my eyes fixated on her book, disregarding other tasks and trading in mundane daily chores to escape into her creative world. This is a crucial writing quality as the human attention span wanes more and more. I was excited and honored to read Chambers's debut book and look forward to reading future works. H.R. Chambers is talented and gifted with an intriguing imagination!

Hollywood, are you listening? Your next blockbuster is here! Such a fun-filled, action-packed ride filled with joy and no shortage of ‘feels.’ I was surprised at how quickly I emotionally invested in Sydney, a teenage girl who is thrust into a battle she has no idea about. H.R. Chambers wastes no time in pulling you into her story; she hits the ground running and never lets up. You can’t help but be swept along. Her confusion becomes your confusion. Her desire to see her loved ones safe becomes your desire. A nonstop roller-coaster ride that leaves the reader engaged and entertained. I cried several times during the reading of this book. Please hurry with the sequel Mrs. Chambers! I was given a complimentary copy of this book. It was an honor to read it, and I look forward to all future works by this promising author!

This book was such an amazing fantasy book! The way the author described everything made it seem like I was right there. The ending was great and I definitely can't wait for the second one. If you love Harry Potter, you'd love this book. I recommend it to everyone!

The moment I first saw the cover, I was intrigued. This action packed fantasy story rolled off the page into my imagination as an anime style adventure. The characters are well developed and full of emotion, especially the feisty main character Sydney as her life is flipped upside down. The settings, in all realms, are descriptive and colorful. The plot takes twists and turns that aren’t expected, which is everything you want in a good read. This is a satisfying debut novel by the author and the ending leaves you hoping that the next book in the promised series will be out sooner than later so we can see what happens next to Sydney and Sakura.
