This is me being generous. 

Here's  the thing  the whole story is really  about Kallia and then Demarco. It was fine love a good fantasy romance. But after a while it got old. When Jack started disturbing  that relationship I was over it.  Enter the  triangle I didn't care for one bit. Everything else was pushed aside to focus on it. 

The whole point was Kallia to prove something in  closed off Glorian's  magical competition.  Instead she just proved how flashy and undisturbed  she  is  by the other  characters.  Which is also another thing that was missed out on. 

The plot is lacking when her competitors and a  friend from the Conquers  Circus start being impacted  by a mysterious  force.  That's also trapped all of them in the town.  One  that is never really  given any answer to. I think it believe   it has something  to do with Glorians forgotten past.  But I'm hoping  When Night Breaks  better  has clear answers.
