By THE INFAMOUS REVIEWER GIO:

When I first picked up this title, naturally I assumed it was probably going to be another Tolkienian type of tale, perhaps with a dash of Dragonlance mixed in it.

Boy was I wrong! To my big surprise, other than featuring fantastic creatures like elves, dwarves, and orcs (and many many more!) this story stands out for its originality and brilliance of execution.

By the time we wrap up chapter 4 we are made aware that this is an ambitious project with massive scope. Why? Well, for instance, Chapters 1 through 4 introduce us to three or four separate casts of both major and minor players in this saga. This is not the type of story you can just skimp through. The sheer number of characters and locations demands our focus. And  these are not shallow types of characters either. They have depth and a wide range of peculiarities that defines them.

The language is precise and to the point. Prose is straightforward and gets the job done without any awkward word selections or expressions that feel out of place. 

What really got me sucked into the story and emotionally invested in these characters is the fact that (this being a magic world, with magic used quite heavily all the time) the danger is real and people get hurt… or worse! Nobody is safe! This is a big puzzle that slowly unfolds before our eyes as we read on. Something truly catastrophic has impacted the world and all species and races–whether they be elves, orcs, dwarves, fairies or centurions–ALL have been affected. This is what is called ‘The Sundering’. What caused the Sundering? And why? Keep reading my friends for this goes from good to better!

Book 1 really hit its target, and that is to bring forward a new and original fantasy saga with good story and complex characters…Honestly, after reading this I immediately picked up book 2 because it is so engaging and exciting to see it all unfold.

Stay tuned for an upcoming Q&A with the author!
