I found the characters' names unique and beautiful. It seems that their voyage going to Pangorn Island was full of adventure. It's exciting to know if they obtain the coveted treasure and if they surpass the unusual creatures they encountered. But, this kind of book is not what I usually read; therefore, I'll skip the book. Nevertheless, congratulations to the author on BOTD!

I admire authors that can create entire fantasy worlds complete with sorcerers, elves, and evil wizards. Certainly, reading the first handful of pages one can see the complexity of this novel. However, I'm not a sword and sorcery kind of guy, so I'll take a pass on this. Nevertheless, congrats to Mr. Duvall on his achievement.

I deeply admire the author's creation of this remarkable piece. While a work of fiction, the book vividly portrays the ancient inhabitants of Earth—their cultures and societal values—to the point where I felt compelled to research some of the characters' names to verify their existence. The inclusion of maps enhances the book's authenticity, and the characters' naming system feels relatable, establishing a strong connection to the story's setting and offering a justified syntactic rationale.


Wow. Blurring the line between fact and fiction might be one of the most remarkable achievements an author can reach.
Your enthusiasm for this book is contagious. Good review! :D

This book isn’t really for me, but I can see that it could be a good choice for fans of adventure and fantasy in a historical fiction context.

Not often a period of history that is explored. An interesting take including the fantasy aspects as well.

Thanks for that comprehensive, very good review. It covers most aspects required by the interested reader - a general description of the plot (without spoilers), some of the characters, the emphases on action scenes, and different narative voice and style. Based upon the review, one can see that the novel is, generally of the treasure hunt / odyssey kind, and is great for the lovers of fantasy fiction.
