Liberty Epic of Shadows by L. A. Espriux is historical fiction and a chain of events from century to century. It was divided into five sections. It is the story of a place known as Liberty Peninsula. It was named after the great Galleon Spanish cargo, "Libertad." The cargo sank some centuries before while traveling back home with many golds and a "Shaman" later delivered by the friar, Miguel. The survivors of this ship were made up of some Indians, Captain Emmanuel Belasko and his crew. The "Shaman," Xeantee Aconee, became the first inhabitants of the Peninsula, which they called Aconee later. But they would face being overthrown by Adam Pixley, an ally that becomes an enemy in the time of Tahmoh, the son of Belasko.

One of the book's positive aspects was the way the events were arranged to follow each other with precision. At the beginning of the book, several questions were raised with much curiosity about the following events. Each section, from the first to last, answered my questions adequately. An example was when Emmanuel's crew was in mutiny. The situation is almost helpless. The prophecy of Miguel could play a role here.

The fact that Aconee didn't die brings doubt and confusion, but it's later answered in the book's later chapters. There are many instances similar to this, making it a great read. Each chapter was written in great detail, and also the illustrations at the beginning of each section not only made it enjoyable to read but more remarkable to imagine.

Another positive aspect of the book was the development of each character, both major and minor. In a new section or chapter, a new character was looked at with the previously mentioned characters, thereby creating a link between the characters. It was done calculatingly. It wasn't confusing; it made the book a more interesting read. Also, the suspense throughout the book was captivating.

However, the pages weren't numbered. It caused difficulty when I tried to navigate through the chapters. Also, the book was not professionally edited. There were many errors. Apart from these reservations, I didn't dislike any other aspect of the book.

Due to these negative issues discussed above, I would reduce the rating of Liberty Epic of Shadows a bit to 3 out of 4 stars. Notwithstanding, this is one of the best adventure series I have read. It was entertaining, informative, suspenseful, and educational.

I learned a lot about life; I saw humans from the eyes of the author. I recommend this to those interested in adventure series and historical fiction. It would inform them and take them to the highest spheres of imagination with each chapter.
