Book 2 it’s amazing too.

Wow, the series is really really good. I love the characters the storylines, and there is always something happening. No boring filler moments/paragraphs/pages.

Love the riding style and I totally recommend this epic fantasy series.

Tim Campbell is an incredible narrator, he brings the book to life.

Great book!

I really enjoyed the storyline, but the varon is a little too predictable. Like why are you letting your girlfriend who can’t fight nearly as good as you come with you. Of course she’s going to be a hostage lol. Still love this series! Thanks for the awesome book!

Omg. Love this book

Wish there was more action but all in all it’s a wonderful story with a surprising ending.

Predictable but fun

I loved the way this book was written and I am very excited to read the next one. I also loved examining the contrast between Veron and Brixton. However, I was able to predict what was going to happen for most of the book, however that is likely because of the events in chapter 1, and that this book has a lot of similarities to a story in the old testament (not saying which to prevent spoilers). I must say that Brixton is probably my favorite character to hate (if that makes sense). I love how we think he is going to be good only to be wrong again and again and again.

Love the book

This book is a great story, well written with sone good plot twists…worth a credit!

Fabulous second entry by amazing new author!

I found this book engaging, enticing and enthralling. You are drawn to really hate the villain and truly root for the hero. I am so looking forward to the finale!

A great book to listen to in the car

Enjoyed every moment of the book. I've been enjoying this series since I found it. "Rise of the Shadow" is a great middle book, meaning it helps set up the last book by putting the pieces into place. Character development could have been a bit better but overall it's a great book. can't wait to round out the series with the last book.

Grrrr

This writer is gifted in making a person become invested in the story. The narrator is likewise gifted. The story itself is well written and enthralling. All this, makes the issues more painful. Characters bend in personality and ability to fit a certain plot path. People with great ability become useless. Intelligent people stupid. One moment a person is capable of battle against a cross between a sabertooth and a stegosaurous and the next a spoiled child can defeat them. If it was all around badly written I would just dismiss these books as trash. It's because the author obviously has so much ability that the literary laziness hurts so much.
