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.

This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, places, events, and incidents are the products of the author's imagination. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental.

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.

Just not sure what is happening here

So let me begin by saying I was given this book free in exchange for my unbiased opinion. So here are my thoughts….. While the author tries so hard to give the reader these wonderful descriptions of mundane things like an airplane, bathroom or a mirror it seems eternal and 6 chapters in that’s all we have gotten so far. Description after description after description, it felt like talking to a 2 year old, they are so excited about all the stuff in their “new” world but its rather boring listening to them because you know all this stuff already and that was how this book felt. Of course that’s when Ambrosia is not acting like a pubescent teenager needing to get laid…..so much inuendo I had to go back and check to make sure it was fantasy fiction and not erotica. At chapter 7 and I still have zero idea what the purpose of all this is, why is the main character here? What is his purpose for leaving the clearly different world from where he came and one you can drive from? I struggled not to just stop listening and write the review on what I had been able to get through but truly felt that would not be fair so I continued. Grammatical errors, was that the narrator? Or the writer? And just when I thought I was going to lose it before the book was done, it got interesting with a crazy blind man….. I will read book 2 just to complete the series but I hope that it moves on to the point.

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.

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.
