I read this a year or so ago and really liked it. The world building was great and I really connected with the characters. Reading your review has made me want to read it again. I’ll need to try and find the second one!

I have not read a good fantasy novel in quite awhile, but this one might make me want to! I really like that it seems to have a little bit of everything in it. This is a great review!

Who would've to stay in a land like the Land Of The Princes? I definitely will not like to stay in a place filled with such agony. Galen did well to leave. However, will Voulhire favor him? Interesting review.

I read a few sample pages of this book, and I really enjoyed the foundation of the plot. The inclusion of politics and magic made it more appealing. Congratulations on your selection for BOTD!

Latest Review: The Warrior's Meditation by Richard L Haight

Post by Donna Walker »

This book is a must-read for fantasy fiction lovers. It was one of the first reviews that I wrote for OBC. I became entranced by the magical kingdom of Voulhire and immediately went on to read book 2. Congratulations on BOTD!

I really like your review; however, I'm surprised that it was featured considering that it doesn't adhere to the guidelines. I was looking everywhere for your rating until I realised that it wasn't in bold. You're very lucky. I've had a review not published for accidentally missing italics on the name once.

Latest Review: Intoxicating Tango by Cherie Magnus

Post by Mayang Bature »

The vivid description in this book seemed to give a precise representation of what the author had in mind because it was so thorough. Galen, Rowan, Meldorath, and Lord Alderman's character growth make significant contributions to the immersive experience as you watch them change. It won't be a waste of time to read this book.
As long as there is a concept of victors, the vanquished will always exist.

'The setting vividly captures a world of dark magic, and the intriguing characteristics of certain characters in the book left me grinning.' There's something thrilling about this statement. It compels me to read this book. Good review.

Indeed, my imaginations seem funny as I tried to envision the so-called Riva Rohavi dancing while trying to fight their enemies. This book sounds not only interesting but also humorous. Nice review.

The connection with the environment depicted inthe story and the mind of a reader is purely bliss,the mental images of the different actions grasped from the story creates a better understanding. from your review even new readers will establish easy understanding with laughter and eagerness to read the next chapter. Every reader including you and I will imagine and understand every word in the book as it become a picture in the mind.
Also the enthusiasm of grabbing opportunities and looking forward to different things as Galen
did should be employed. Adaptation is also necessary.
In summary just as you reviewed it, This book is very interesting and adventurous

This imaginary kingdom, Voulhire, sounds like an interesting place. It takes creativity to produce a fiction-like artwork that appeals to readers like this. This book sounds like a good read. Great review.
