A New World Dawning

This is a fun read. Somewhat different in premise from what I normally go for this book involves a group of 9 women at a fantasy convention (reminiscent of DragonCon held each year in Atlanta) who find themselves transported to the world of their favorite fantasy TV show courtesy of the very real Mother Goddess of the series. Man, if only. This has something for nearly everybody - humor (and lots of it), a bit of romance (for those who are into that sort of thing), adventure, heroic action, evil doings and HEROES - hunky, hunky heroes. Plus some pretty good villians, too. The characters are lively, the situation pretty believable and I'm hoping there are sequels coming because I really want to see what happens to our heroines.

A fun, witty, highly enjoyable read!

This book is a real treat for longtime fans of the scifi/fantasy genre. With its sharp wit, carefully crafted plot and a hearty dash of pop culture, W9YGV never lets readers down. There are quite a few characters to keep tabs of in the story, including the nine spunky heroines who are transported to the fantasy world known as Domain. But that doesn't detract from the fun, and there are some 'fish out of water' situations as the gals adjust to their new home that had me laughing out loud. It's been a really long time since I've enjoyed a fantasy story as much as I have WITH NINE YOU GET VANYR. Jean Marie Ward, together with the late, talented and sorely missed Teri Smith, have created a wonderful world for fangirls and fanboys to lose themselves in. Thank you, ladies!

A great fantasy.

With Nine You Get Vanyr Jean Marie Ward & Teri Smith Samheim Publishing, Feb 2007, $17.00 ISBN: 1599983605 At the science fiction and fantasy convention, DragonCon, the internet fan group the Daughters of Reyah loves the show Domain. Also at the event is Reyah, who separately, along with her group followers, makes a wish on the Wishstone. Nine girls are transported to Domain while also transformed into their avatar persona. Also sent is Lydia, the actress who plays the villainess the Demon Queen on the TV show. The internet group is transformed into Vanyr (demi-gods) just like Reyah's sons. Lydia is taken to the evil son's Keep where he mistakes her for Megeara, the villainess who can conjure up an unbound demon. He plans to take over the world and oust his mother from power. He demands Lydia call up a demon. Each of Reyah's daughters is sent on a quest to prepare for the upcoming battle between her evil son and his minions vs. her new "offspring". Jean Marie Ward & Teri Smith make Domain seem like a real realm due to the reactions of the transported conventioneers. The characters are very believable as they adapt to having real powers that they must learn to use properly as opposed to role-playing. Fans will never look at Atlanta's DragonCon the same way again after this fun filled fantasy. This reviewer's only wish when she attends the 07 Con on the Labor Day weekend is more tales in the realm of Domain. WITH NINE YOU GET VANYR is a great fantasy. Harriet Klausner
