Good book but..

Any additional comments?

I didn't like the ring plot hole, that kinda ruin it. I don't like when characters act stupid. Other than that is better than most book out there, a good listen if you have nothing to listen at the moment.

Fun, Clean story

I am currently enjoying the second book in the series The Memory Stone by Jeffrey Quyle. Clean and enjoyable, this story follows the many adventures of Theus as he endeavors to combat evil and make sense of his newly found unique talents and magical abilities.

There is an aspect of romance in this book; however, it is not a lustful "romance". It is a romance truly born out of love and respect. That is one of the many reasons I like the book.

I also enjoy the book because a lot of the characters in the book are simply "good-people." Many times in books and movies the protagonist is one of only a few good people; he/she faces insurmountable odds against many ill-meaning and questionable characters. However, in this book, many of the characters are truly good-people. And, with the hostility in our society these days, it is simply refreshing to read a book with so many good-people in it.

There is a strong chance this series will be added to my favorites list. However, I will have to wait and see how the series ends.

Update 1/5/19: this series was added to my "favorites" list.

Great storyline and adventure

I enjoyed the story premise. I like that it is a great adventure with a humble hero who helps others and wins with being a good person!

A Kind Read

I'm reading a lot of this genre lately as I recover myself from a serious illness. This was a very enjoyable tale set in a well thought out fantasy world. While there are mature themes, there's no overt smut, nor blood and guts so it's suitable for youngsters, but wouldn't disappoint adults either. I'll be reading the second installment for sure.

a great journey for fantasy fans

this story is a journey that had me addicted. I listened straight through. after the third attempt to get past the first hour or two. it reminded me of books like "Name of the Wind" or maybe "Fates Forsaken". anyhow check it out, you won't be disappointed.
