Views on the Cover Page and Characters:

The front cover page is evident of the lost emerald that the team of teenagers has to find to restore peace in the galaxies. The cover page exudes rays of vibrancy and enigma, however, a few pictures of illustrated teenagers could have spiked up its curiosity, it becomes easy to imagine the characters in the garb of subconscious mind while reading.

The scaffold of the novel is built around Eliana Parker, the teenage girl, as she comes from a luminary Elementalists family; she has the responsibility to restore peace disturbed by her mother Reyna. Eliana and Archer act as two stronghold characters in comparison to others originated from the camp. And Reyna, the mother, is a silent subtly clever villain. She bothers her daughter, but not like a rogue villain. Even in their hostility lies sub-audition of chemistry. Other characters nudge the story yet remain out of the limelight. This is a great aspect to deliver a YA fantasy novel without a confusing cast of characters.
