I love good fantasy and Payton Taylor's Crown Of Sunlight was a great read. It had everything I wait from such a novel, interesting characters, magic, secrets and romance. And a world, about what, I can't wait to get know more. I enjoyed every page of the book, the twists and the end, which was teasing my curiosity.
Crown Of Sunlight is the first book of The Corvinus Chronicles, which is already a good start, because I love, if a storynot ends after the first book. One of the things, which I really like in Crown Of Sunlight were the creatures. They were unique and made the story more interesting. I really hope, in the other parts of the series, we will get know more from the inhabitants of Writhia. What was another unique  and fun thing for me, that you can find not only magic, but technique too in this world. The magic and science made a good pairing, mostly with the magic system. Which I truly love. We got used, that in fantasy stories the characters have a magical ability. Nor the Crown of Sunlight is an exception. But here, people have a unique magical gift system, which I found really fun.
The story had parts, which were easy to guess for professional bookworms, but it was not cliche and too predictable. No matter how much you guessed, the book still surprised you and kept you curious. The characters, the twists and the plot all made you fall in love with Writhia and cheer for our heroines, Sunny and Jo. Even that, I have to admit, my favourite is Leo, so far.

Shortly, Crown Of Sunlight was a great novel. It has fun, interesting characters, a unique world and secrets and surprises, which make you wanting more. I can recommend it to every fellow bookworm, mostly, if you like fantasy. I can't wait to read the second book, Palace Of Moonlight!
