Customer Reviews

Very good but not his best.

Although it is thrilling, the book lacks a few things. The whole stroy plays out in less then two hundred and fifty pages, which this story was not meant for to. The caracthers come and go without much order or a hint of it and Garland mostly centers on main caracters leaving the rest a little gray. The last battle is easily won and without much description of the actual event ( too much similar to the whole book ). It is as if Garland sometimes lost his concentration which resulted in such writeing. The good part is that the main caracthers are likeable and Garland developed them through the book both mentally and emotionaly. I also liked the history of the demon blade world and the way magic works is quite original. All in all a very good book.

Interesting, orginal fantasy

I'm pretty new to the fantasy genre so I'm probably being a bit lenient in this review. To me this story was unique. The history about the demons living on earth and being run off by humans was intriguing. You'll find the usual commonly used fantasy creatures alomg with some interesting new ones such as the leshies. The characterization was great. Most of the main characters developed throughout the whole story. The writing was typical for a bean book , nothing too fancy but enough detail for your imagination to bring the story to life.

Action Adventure By the Blade

It is an action packed journey for a band of heroes to complete their mission. It has humor, action, life and death, and even romance. I found it to be a very good read that kept me reading straight through, but it seemed I had just picked up the book. I would recommend the book to any fantasy and adventure avid reader. Plus it is great for both males and females (me) equally.
