Publisher's Summary

Meet Ambrosia as he is invited by a wealthy philanthropist to leave behind his life of general obscurity, safely sheltered from society, to enter a world of intriguing characters in the city of Hartland. But if he only knew what was to come, he may have never stepped onto that plane.

He soon becomes terrorized in a dream so intensely real his mind cannot seem to let go of it and is plagued by disturbing images of infatuation from another time and place. Afraid he is spiraling into madness, Ambrosia seeks out the help of those around him. Yet he has no idea what he is about to uncover. There may be more mystery and magic in his new home than he ever cares to admit.

BOOK 1

I love both the mystery and being thrown into two worlds within an hour! This reminds me so much of some fantasy and at the same time science fiction.

Unique Story

So this is a very different type of read. Right away, as a reader, I was thrown off by the concept of the book starting on chapter three. This book details the journey of a young man who is pulled from his world into the modern day. As he comes to grips with his new life, he is haunted by his past, and must do what he can to adjust and survive.

The way he sees things is fresh and new, especially when it comes to pretty girls. I thought the descriptions throughout the book were beautiful albeit over winded at times. There are some patches of dialogue that are funny, some that are integral to the story, and some that I thought were just unhelpful to the story overall.

This is a very complex narrative, one that requires a bit of in depth thought to truly appreciate. I think I’ll continue on with the series to see what the next one has to offer because this one left me certainly curious.

Colorful

This has an intriguing storyline. Looking forward to part 2. Byron Fortin is very descriptive in his writing. And characters are well defined. Onward to part 2!

Good!!

I really like this book. I didn’t want it to end! Glad there’s a part 2! Great narration.

Fantasy meets SciFi

The narration on this book is amazing!

I was a little confused at first but once I caught up I love it! Creative with some many twist and turns I had no idea what was going to happen

Intriguing book

This book has me intrigued from the first page and did not let me go. The book is creative and unlike anything I have ever read. I was confused at first but I soon found that I understood the concept. The narrator was thoroughly captivating and kept me on my toes. I highly recommend this book with all its marvelous twist. I received this audio book upon my request and I am voluntarily leaving this review of my own volition.

Ambrosia pt 1

This book was more 'involved' than I imagined.I felt lost through all of it. John Joseph Rogers narration seemed fine throughout.I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.'

some might like

some might like but unfortunately I really just couldn't get into this story; honestly not sure why.

Very iteresting listen. Good Author Great narrator

So I got both the audio-book and the written book, and they are both one in the same as it's the same story, but I will try to remember to put both read/listen in even though I listened to it.

So when you read or listen to this book the story actually starts on chapter three which is actually done on purpose. The author describes many things in the book, which can help you visualize what you are listening/reading even better There is so many twists and turns in the book you never know what will be around the next corner as you read/listen to the book. I personally think it was a well written book, though some of the descriptions could be cut a bit.

Ambrosia who is a male gets a chance to experience a whole new world that he has never seen before. The book follows his journey into the modern era. New clothes was one of the first things he got introduced to, and the description was quite funny as to what he thought of it. As he is trying to cope with this life he is living, he feels haunted by things in his past and has to think what can be done to cope.

The narrator was great, he pronounced everything at a good pace, never rushing through or drawing out the scenes. He put voices into each of the characters, even making it seem like each one had the proper emotions (example sadness). His voice rose and fell in all the right areas. He does a great job on this book.

I received a free copy of this audio-book free and am giving it an honest review of my thoughts.

Ambrosia

This is an impeccably written tale that draws you in quickly. I can hardly wait to start the next book to see what is going to happen.

Fabulous

Enjoyed the audio book very much
Great narrater and a well written story line can’t wait for book 2
