This book was surprising to me in that I am not normally a fan of this genre. However, I was really drawn into this story and found myself looking forward to picking the book up again every time I had to put it down. At the end, I found myself looking forward to the next installment in the series. The story was also surprising in its many unexpected plot twists. Many story lines did not develop at all as I expected, but changed suddenly in interesting and intriguing ways. As another reviewer has noted, there is a really good mix of continuing plot and action, and there is always something happening to keep things moving. In fact, one of the most frequently recurring thoughts that I had as I read the story was "Wow! This would make a GREAT movie!" I highly recommend this book, which I think is suitable for all ages. There is violence, but the descriptions of it are no worse than in the average fairy tale.

Great Book! I had a hard time putting it down and always looked forward to getting back to the adventures of Emory of Amur. The author has a great ability to draw the reader into the story and keep him there. I can't wait for the Second Book in the Promise of the Stones Series. Great Fantasy, Great Story, Great Book!

Very good book in the fantasy style. Hard to put the book down, I really enjoyed this tale. I can't think of another book to compare this to, class of it's own.

Wizardmont is the definition of a page turner. It pulls you into the story and allows you to take every step with the characters as if you were really there with them. It holds the key to great suspense and each time you begin to think the action is over the author rounds another corner of adventure. This book is an exciting read that people of all ages and backgrounds can enjoy. D. L. Blackmon

I picked this book up and wasn't able to put it down for two days until I finished it. I couldn't wait to find out what was going to happen next--the author keeps you in suspense the entire time! The end is not what you would expect, and I can't wait for the next in the series to come out! You won't be disappointed!
