Ratings and reviews

This book was so great with everything. The World building and character development was a little better than how the show does it at times. And the way the action scenes were written, it was pretty easy to imagine all the epic action that RWBY is known for. Before this book I thought Team CFVY was a bit cool bit before but now I love them, Fox rules!

I loved this book, might be one of the best things I've ever read in my life, I've reread more times than I've re watched RWBY can't wait for the next book defiantly worth every penny I paid for it and more.

Though the wait was a little longer than I would have liked, I am glad for it. The book does a great job not only telling a brand new and original story, but also filling in missing pieces of the main story line and the trials and tribulations of the members of team CVFY. I would love to see more works like this one in the future.
