Great little story

Action packed little story filled with many magical creatures. Imagination at its best. Great story for young people interested in the land of fairies, trolls drawfs and other mystical creatures that fill young and old alike. God the book at no charge in exchange for an honest review.

Fun romp through a fantasy world

In the style of lion witch and wardrobe, bridge to teribithia and others. A young boy transported to another world where he is the one destined to save it. A good read. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

A Decent YA Fantasy Adventure

ustin is a 16-year-old boy coping with his parent’s divorce, a new school and bullies. In addition to all of that, he also has reoccurring dreams of a whole other world. Soon, Justin finds an old sword and a ruby pendant. Both of which lead him to realize that the other world is not a dream, but real. Then the adventure begins. Justin soon finds himself fighting along side elves, dwarves and many other mythical beings in a world that views him as some sort of savior.

“Sword Of Nights Fall” has a lot of familiar elements to it if you read a lot of books in this genre, young adult or otherwise. Over all, I enjoyed the story, but it just didn’t grab me enough to look for the next installment. I think that was because there are some continuity issues in the story that should have been caught and fixed. Even more important, Justin’s character wasn’t that believable to me as a sixteen-year-old boy. He comes off as a much younger, more naive kid than a teenager would have in the story. Still, I don’t feel like I wasted my time with this story. I’m just not compelled to go any further with it.

good read

I was gifted this ARC from the author for a honest and unbiased review. I was just getting to know the characters when the book ended. I felt that the first book was too short. Having said that, the story line was interesting and I expect that the next book will continue to develop along these lines. I gave it 3 stars all around
