Lusam 5

The Dragon Mage Wars, Book 5

De: Dean Cadman

Narrado por: Alex Wyndham

After failing to completely close The Rift, Lusam and Neala travel south in search of the illusive Pearl Isle, where they hope to discover the fourth Guardian book, and return in time to try again.

Time, however, is not on their side, as the dark God, Aamon, sets in motion a plan to restore his own power, and once again tear open The Rift to unleash the horrors of the Netherworld upon their world.

Aysha's new inability to see his destiny, along with her prophetic warnings about a hidden realm and Neala's certain death if she enters it, all weigh heavily on Lusam's mind. Old friendships are rekindled, and new ones forged along the way, some more strange than they could ever have imagined. And a new discovery is made, one so profound that it will change Lusam's life forever, as well as rewrite the very history of Afaraon.

excellent continuation, Spoiler alert.

I loved it! it was an amazing book just like the previous 4 have been. The only negative I can think of is the author's idea of a separate realm or dimension with slower time. Luke the time chamber in DBZ it's a good concept, however, it was executed with a massive flaw. within the hidden realm a day should take a couple minutes in the outer realm. Thus 6 months in the hidden realm would only be a few days outside right? Arlo uses this theory to explain how he is still alive after 2000 years. That's the issue though. that's 2000 years on the outside. which should be around 73,000 years in the hidden realm... though I might be getting my math wrong it would still be well over 20,000 years regardless. which should make Arlo a pile of bones or dust if anything at all...

That said I don't really care if it adds up perfectly or not because I loved his addition to the book.

The main character is basically a horrible person

The narrator is fantastic but the story line is a bit weak and the character development is lacking. The author slips between points of view with little regard to continuity. It's still unclear as to why so many people struggle with faith when the object of that faith (their god) is frequently visible and available. The main character is basically a horrible person. The lack of character development means that his "angst" over killing thousands of people/beings is short lived. He laughs at the pain of others, grins at the thought of killing, and regularly humiliates his companions. If the author ends up killing off Lusam, I don't think I'll be upset. That being said, the story is enjoyable enough that I'll most likely finish the series off and will rejoice if the main character doesn't make it to the end.

Great Book

Lusam

another great addition but I wish the girl could come with power to help him as well
she's been around magic so long that it should be running off her as well.
