3By boyhowdy56Decent story line however it jumps around leaving out parts of the background story. All characters need more development.Unusual
5By Richar99Somehow I never thought of combining a science fiction story with magic. Strange, but it worked. It was a good read and I found that when I laid it down, I couldn't wait to get back to it. Good storyline, good plotting. Interesting feeling I had reading the stories. They reminded of the storie I read when starting science fiction from John Campbell, Cordwainer Smith and E. E. "Doc" Smith, where the lead character, whether by genetics, training or character focus, became powerful almost omniscient and able to direct the growth of worlds and the future. I enjoyed it all, immensely.Sci-Fi to fantasy
3By Pops priceThe story begins as a true science fiction novel but then downgrades into a fantasy story full of sorcerers and demons. Otherwise a good storyWell thought out
3By MickspThis book I thought was very good with a nice depth, however there were a lot of parts which skipped over large gaps in time as well as some crucial character development. Also I enjoyed the book and overall it was a great read the ending just didn’t meet up to my expectations. All around still a good book with some minor flaws that can distract from the reading.Amateur
1By Sickens jackThe writing is clunky; the author refuses to write so that the characters sound natural.Amateur
1By MaetheImagine a third-grader telling you about a dream they had and you’ve got the idea how this novel reads. I kept waiting for there to be a deep narrative breath as the author continued to tell his reader what would happen next. While there is an intriguing idea at the root of this book, the writer’s total lack of character development and subtlety made this book a challenge to read.Stewart
5By Stewart004A great adventure to where science and magic coexist.Simplistic
2By Joshua Mc QThe writer has a style of telling, not showing. The dialogue is simplistic and the revelation moments are dull and uninteresting. The character development is non-existent, and as a result there is no attachment to the main character or his situation. The premise was interesting, but I'm disappointed to say that nothing else was.Melt down midway
2By ActoresseThis started out good and interesting but devolved to wizards, sorceress and councils. Very disappointed
