But when a tyrannical king vows to hunt the hero down, Finn never imagined the enemy would kidnap his father.

Praise for The Golden Blade:

All I can say is...my mind was blown! And not nearly in the way I expected. -Goodreads Review ★★★★★

This series has been astounding so far, and with such a vast world, and the promise of three more books I can’t wait to see where Collier chooses to take us next. -Goodreads Review ★★★★★

Collier fires on all cylinders in this novel, whether describing the treacherous terrain of the new lands Finn and his companions encounter, exploring the darkness of a character coping with mental health problems, or tastefully opening up to a very real, very intense romance subplot.
-Goodreads Review ★★★★★

I hope this series doesn't leave me hanging.

I am totally loving this series. it has a very strange sense of humor. good action only as much "romance" as a good movie a kiss here and there will he get the girl? I hope when I get to the end I'm not pissed and waiting for more.

it's good

loved the book. I cant wait to read the next book in the series

The Fellowship of the Four

This book continues with the MCs trekking through other lands and battling more fantastical creatures and adversaries on there search for the Golden Blade. While on their journey, the 3 champions run into Saul, who Finn thought was killed off in book 1 by the saber-tooth tiger. As it turns out, it was fortuitous since Saul purported to know the way to a land where the golden blade resides and volunteered to lead them there.

What follows is an entertaining series of events that varies between jocular to semi-serious.

Spoiler follows!
While I appreciated Stevie Collier's enriched character development of Saul's backstory, I found that his demise was more the fault of the 3 champions than that of Saul's, considering how he was demeaned and threatened during the journey. This, along with the fact that if not for him, they would never have found hidden land. While Finn had considered his part in Saul's betrayal through introspection, he never looked too seriously at it.

While I enjoyed this book, it was a bit less so than book 1
