Description

After a long and prosperous time of peace, the inhabitants of Mariandel live happily, ignoring the reality of their world. Humans, Hulgor and Lyrathies rule the continent, which once hosted the greatest of wars, and which has now forgotten what it is to fight.

A threat hidden in plain sight for centuries is ready to return, stronger than ever. Fueled by revenge and pure evil, its goal is clear: destroy everyone. However, two people seem to be aware. Miriel, a young descendant of a sighted family, has dreams about a future where the end of humanity is reflected. Zedric, a strange man closer to old age than youth, is one of the few who knows the truth of the world.

Can Miriel and Zedric uncover the world's most hidden secrets? Who are the good guys and who are the bad guys?

The Forgotten Curse is the first book in a trilogy that will explore an entire world. I hope you are well prepared for the adventures to come!

    Overall, a more than decent story. I like the style, the fact that everything is explained precisely without feeling overwelmed.  The world has plenty of misteries that to me are interesting, and I am sure there are more to come. I specially enjoyed chapter I more than prologue, because I could see the world itself. It reminded me of Mistborn, writed by Brandon Sanderson. Prologue is decent, but I don't know if it will have a real impact on the story.
    I think the concept of andramar is original and has a lot of cool ideas that you could explore in the next chapters. Also, I think an expanation of the origins of Miriel would also help understanding the book. I believe more characters will be introduced, so make sure to explain each one separately so that we can understand them easily.
    Also, Just make sure you develop the characters, and don't try to overexplain everything. Don't fall into cliches and don't try to rush when writing. This story, if edited properly, has a lot of potential, so stay motivated and write a chapter at least twice a week.
    I will keep reading, as long as you write like you these first two chapters.

    Overall, I think this story is really interesting and I would like to be finished as soon as possible. Don't know who Kaelen is or why the prologue features him, but I think you'll explain it in the next chapters. The rest of the story is easy to follow but not too easy.
