I have to admit this was beautiful, but I was hoping that it would be much longer, that it would go much deeper, and expand so much more on the characters we've grown to know through the shadows of the earlier series bits. ( ) Nice to be able to see how Rose and Linden came to be a couple who actually cared for each other in this world. Interesting to see Rose's thoughts and not just words to others as she spiraled towards her own imminent death. I think I could have really liked Rose had she been around a bit more in the first book. This book also had a teaser of book 1 and a preview of book 2, but since I'd already read book 1 and I have book 2 waiting for me, I chose to just read the bonus story. I adored "Wither" and "Fever" is my most anticipated book of the new year. I paid $1.99 happily for this book and I don't mind paying that for a short story set in a world I love. However, I wanted to make potential buyers aware that this is a very short story that I didn't feel personally added anything to the series. There is there first six chapters of "Wither" included as well as a preview of "Fever". I didn't need to read either as I have already read 'Wither" and I dont' want to know anything about "Fever" until I dig into it upon the official release. The map is a cute little addition and the extras are two links that take readers to a behind the scenes clip of the making of the "Fever" cover and to a trailer for the first book. I felt that $1.99 was too much to ask for this short story since everything else including are merely marketing tools. If the story was more interesting I would have been happy to pay for it, but I still felt vaguely disappointed. Zeige 3 von 3 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
