How exciting for a college student to discover he has the superhuman ability to travel through time! Join Keiji as he enters a post apocalyptic era to find the Kantara Scrolls along with his new companion, Hazi. Get ready for battles with soldiers, giants, and dragons! This sounds like a must read for fans of science fiction and fantasy.

Though sci-fi is not my cup of tea, an apocaliptic future with dragons sounds like a well- crafted world...

Congratulations to the BOTD author! I love extra-ordinary stories. I hope this book has that in its protagonist's time-traveling adventure. Also, based on the perfect rating, I am certain the plot is well executed and worth reading.

I am a fan of fantasies so I would say the book is well written and I love the part where characters are able to reflect on themselves cause it is a good thing.

Such a review and an achievement by the author. This should be a fantastic read for those searching for an adventure saga combined with time traveling as well as the addition of mythical beasts. Looking forward to a good rainy day read with lots of action and high interest.

I am always in awe of writers who are able to create absolutely new worlds and universes in their work, giving the people of those worlds their own language, their culture, their governance, their unique inhabitants (flora and fauna inclusive) and so on. It shows great attention to detail, mindfulness, diligence and great intelligence. This is something the authors seem to have pulled off quite well, so kudos to them!

The opening and ending scene of Kantara is nothing like you've seen before. The way they wrote the mythological background was so good. But those are limited to the opening scene and climax. What happens in between is the overtold story of the rough hero who gets into trouble for his locality, his love interest and the conflict in the name of their place.

Kantara
The book review makes a reader more curious and want more of this Sci-fi adventure. The bond between the two characters Keiji and Hezi, the out of this world creatures and soldiers makes it more interesting.

However, as events unfold, Keiji realizes that the doctor's initial instructions didn't reveal the full truth about the perilous world he now inhabits—an apocalypse-ravaged land where dragons, soldiers, and giants form an unlikely alliance to combat the reptilians and other unknown races waging war against them.
- It's intriguing how they kept track of so many characters. An amazing review. Thank you.
