review 1: No spoilers, although I must say these books should be read in order.What a great series, really enjoyed it, if you like epic fantasy, read these and do not wait.As I have written in previous reviews, I really enjoyed how the characters grew in depth and character as more of their back story was revealed with each passing entry. Good world building and magic system, again as revealed slowly, book by book. It is not all crammed down your throat at once as some other series do. I was truly upset that the series came to an end, and do know that I will be reading the other Royce and Hadrian books that were published.Mr. Sullivan if you do read these reviews, I would love to see this series continue in the future.As a result of this series I have picked up Hollow Word, Michael'... mores latest book, and have become a loyal fan.
review 2: Vol 6 – Percepliquis - 5-StarsIn Vol 6 the reading pace is going to slow down considerable for the first time since Vol 3, not that it is lagging or will dull you out of the saga, but if you remember as I mention both in Vol 4 & 5 there was a lot going on and now the time that all these building and shifting interior stories are being pulled in as we draw to the closing answers to the overall quest. Rather than rushing thru the details, it’s a meticulous telling lick lacing up a pair of boots before drawing everything together for the finale. For the invest reader, its actually a rather welcoming pace, as you don’t want the book to end knowing its almost over, like hovering at the gate of the park not forth willing to go dashing out at the end of the day just yet.And if perhaps you thought by mid ay of Vol 5 you had everything figured out and you were just riding it out to say ‘HA! I was right!’ … Then you are in for a big surprise, as not just one one or two but several key details have been derailed with some rather ‘out of left field’ changes, and if that isn’t challenging enough, nothing fits, so while you are on the slow horse towards the gradual epic center, you are perplexing the whole way, furious that you no longer have the clues mastered. Unlike 5 & 6, you’ll find yourself better willing to take short breaks, to contemplate, ponder and perhaps dig about to be assured there are a couple more Sullivan treasures to pick up and read directly after this is over. But once you reach the point of arguing with the characters that they have tried was seems so obvious, then just accept the fact that you will not stop from there until the end or until sleep comes despite any indignity that your eyes can’t keep up a hero’s stamina to go on. You will reach a part when you trust yourself that you have solved at least two of the greatest mysteries, for gotten about two others and shocked at the ones you didn’t even have a notion to guess upon. And yet as they all come to pass you will not be denied the thrill of having seen the revelation come to light. So it is safe to go on and complete the journey. As it is but an incredible one to venture on.See you on the other end, comrade.BEST CATCH:“What’re you doing, buddy?”“Trying something.”“Something Stupid?”“Maybe.” less
