Dear Ms Piloian,
I am writing to thank you for the recorded video and for sharing the books with us. Your English is absolutely amazing. I thoroughly enjoyed both watching the video and reading the books.
Fairy Logistics is set in Maidania, which is obviously our modern Ukraine. The book explores logistics and people whose way of life depends on the political and economic situation, corruption in all business spheres and greed of the contemporary rulers. The plot is dynamic and the book is easy to read.
The thing I liked best was the description of the two worlds – the world of ordinary people and the world of the Princess and her adviser. What is more, the book apparently shows the time of growing self-awareness of the former in spite of sufferings caused by the war and taxes. In the same way, the time of indifference and luxurious existence of the latter is well presented.
The story also brings the reader to the final point that the country is being ruled by outer force. In my view, the main character Robin Goodman does not understand that the events in the east of the country are not just something that happens regularly in Maidania and then turns into war, but it is a well planned by Wolves invasion of Maidania. As a result of information war, Robin sees the Maidanian army as killers of civil people, not as defenders of the country.
However his being sympathetic with the war orphans gives hope that he will understand that it is the neighboring country, ruled by Wolf, that has brought death to eastern Maidania; and the people who stand up against him deserve respect, and their courage is being supported and appreciated by the vast majority of the society. Robin as part of it, becomes a rebel in his relationship with the adviser and insists on giving him 8 golds instead of 10. This is his first step on the road of personal inner struggle against corruption in his own mind.
My criticism of the book is lack of vivid characters, who sacrifice their lives for the sake of Maidania at a really hard time.
The book is written for adults who can read between lines.
As for the book of short stories, I find them entertaining and unforgettable. They are never boring. Each plot is gripping, sometimes with an unexpected ending. On the whole, the book leaves a lot of room for imagination.
To sum up, you are a talented author. Your books are sure to interest readers of different ages.
Sincerely yours,
