I haven’t read a good fantasy book that I’ve actually truly enjoyed, but based on the review this one sounds interesting. I’ll be reading this one as soon as I get a chance.

I truly love the excitement portrayed in this review. I definitely makes me want to read this story. I believe i am in to Fantasy/Sci-fi material. This book sounds similar to book Mortal Instruments. I like the detail of the scene, because i am a visual person. So knowing that was done well in this by per the review is getting me more excited. I believe that is why i enjoyed the Zombie Fallout series so much, because you could truly envision what was happened, due to the detail description of the scenes. I am excited about reading this one!

A book hangover is the perfect description after a late night spent turning "just a few more pages." Your enthusiastic review does conjure fond memories of reading Lord of the Rings. Sounds like an exciting read --thanks for a wonderful review!

The review definitely makes me want to get the book. Its always amazing to read the review of a book by someone who is a fanatic of that specific genre. Sure the author of the book Vincent Bobbe did a great job. Thank you.

The review makes this book sound fantastic! I am not a fan of the fantasy genre typically, but based on the colorful characters and intelligent writing, I may have to give this one a read.

Great review. I love the book already. I'm not a fantasy fan but I'm definitely reading this one; it might be a good introduction to fantasy for me

While the author sounds like he has exceptional storytelling skills, today's BOTD isn't the one for me. I'm not into the fantasy genre, but it was very nice to hear your enthusiasm and praise toward it. I can tell you really enjoyed it! When a book allows us to escape from the world we are in and actually place us in another, you know the author has been successful. I'm so happy you were able to do just that! Thank you for your review; it was very well-written and helpful! :-)

With gushing reviews like the one given here, it is hard to get excited for this book. I love when ancient fantasy can meet the modern day realm of humans. The wide variety of fantasy creatures brought to the table by the author, the ultimate showdown between two supernatural rivals, and the promise of action/violent encounters all have me chomping at the bit to read this one.

Even though I don't care for anything related to zombies as I've read the opening of this it catches you from the very first sentence and so I will be reading this one later on and might have to skip over those zombies unless I need to go to sleep for that's exactly what they do to me they bore me always have ever since I was just a kid so hope that I didn't make a wrong judgement on this one so will see...

Book hangover is such a thing! I am so sad that the subject matter of this book does not sound interesting to me because it comes so highly recommended!

Elves, zombies, vampires and tentacled dog-like creatures. This is my kind of book! Thanks for the review. I may have to check this one out. :shock:

Wow this book sounds like an amazing read for Lord of the Rings fans. I am not a fan of this genre. I don’t like the concept of elves but love zombies and vampires. I will pass on this one but I am sure that this will be an awesome read for those who appreciate this genre!

Races band together? The last time I read about elves was from the LOTR trilogy. This author slightly sounds like Tolkien; only in Bobbe's realm, there are no orces.I would like to explore Bobbe's realm.
