The story is has the back bone of most romances; the boy is well off in society until something happens making their family fall from grace, his life is endangered and is saved by the girl who is worse off then him, etc. but the elements of fantasy and action set this one apart just enough to be refreshing and fun. Part of the story are confusing, and the first chapter is more of a teaser chapter, not fitting into the main story but incites a interest in the reader. Despite the random or confusing moments the story is still good.The ending felt a little

rushed but gives a definite end for the characters.
The art is simply beautiful, each character is full of details and the backgrounds didn't go unnoticed to me. The characters expression reveal a lot of what they feel and the designs for the gods aren't over complicated but still steal the light from the other parts of the scene.
Only a few of the characters get developed, which is a slight downfall to me since character development is one of my favorite parts of any story and something i expect when reading anything other than smut. Kiron, Shumire and Tama are the only ones that get developed, and i would have loved to seen Aida and especially Maui get developed, seeing as they were just important to the story.
I tend not to read a lot of the longer results when I look for a random series, not wanting something else to take up days of my time, but I am glad I chose read this series. Despite the small problems with the story and the lack of character development, I truly enjoyed the series and finished it in two sittings. If you are looking for a bit of action and romance, with a bit of a happy ending you should give it a read its worth the time.
