Thomas A Knight

Thomas A. Knight’s Reprisal is the third and final adventure in the exciting Time Weaver Chronicles trilogy, and readers should probably enjoy books one and two first, especially as Reprisal brings its protagonist full circle. The series starts on earth with an ordinary man pursued by the thoroughly extraordinary. But now this ordinary man, Seth Alkirk, returns, while the extraordinary people who have become his friends battle for lives and lands in faraway Galadir. Seth hasn’t deserted them though; he’s just seeking a way to bring an end to the conflict, while earthly army guys seek power, and distant magicians hold more than this earth can imagine.

There are some thoroughly enjoyable scenes, set on earth, where magicians learn the mysteries of cellphones and cars. But, for the most part, this novel, like the series, is strongest when it’s managing the epic battles and shifting alliances of magical Galadir. Add dragons, monsters, and healthy doses of power and empathy, and you’ll get the picture. The evil are wounded. The strong can be weak. And hope is an engaging thread throughout the tale. With great battles, great characters, and a beautifully imagined world empowered by a risky but nicely authentic magic, Reprisal completes the story in classic style, and leaves enough characters and situations in play for us to hope the author will write more.

From the first line, The Time Weaver grabbed me and hauled me inside a crazy world, on a wild ride! I have rarely felt so connected with the main character after just the first line, and I just had to turn the page, see what would happen next, and continue to be amazed. Thomas A. Knight wields his words with the same sure elegance Seth learns his magic.

What a wild ride! And there will be more to come, as well.

This and other reviews can also be found on my blog (un)Conventional Bookviews.

Legacy starts with a bang, kind of. Krycin wakes up on the shore of an island, with no memory of who he is, what has happened to him or why he is on an island. The first person he meets is a young wizard who helps him out. The wizard is none other than Gladius. The two men become friends, even as Krycin is a little uneasy about some of the choices Gladius makes when it comes to magic and its’ usage.

This story was so much fun to read. Very entertaining and great unexpected twists.
I thought the mixture of characters and personalities was fun and brought some humorous dialogue.
With a unique twist to the usual stories including wizards, dragons and castles is all very magical and lead to some great visuals while reading along.
Even though I read mostly books for teens, when I was approached by the author to review the book I thought that the readers on my blog would be interested in this one as well. It has an adult main character, but the adventures and trials that he has to go through are very entertaining and it has a lot of action and adventure.… (lisätietoja)
