5 Stars for
Betrayal of the Covenant
Engaging Medieval Fantasy
Read more...This is an engaging medieval fantasy novel well worth your time. “Fire of the Covenant” manages to go in unexpected directions while still hitting all the expected fantasy elements from wizards and dwarfs and dragons to expert swordsmen and charming ladies. There are four major protagonists, and each has an interesting role to play, an aspect which feels fresh to me. Scene to scene, there is always something to keep you moving forward into the story, always a reason to turn the page. I stayed involved in the story and in its world, and look forward to reading the next books in the series as they become available.
Well Worth the Wait
Read more...Having read the first book, I was very excited for the second.
I was a bit impatient, but it was well worth the wait.
The transition from first to second book was flawless.
Although, I’ve never been big on battles, this was written in such a manner that it wasn’t offensive or ‘draggy’. It was enjoyable riding along as the twins begin to mature. The characters have become more real and more liked, as well as, disliked. It was a wonderful way to introduce us to the dragons! Mr. Cruikshank is a truly gifted writer and beings life to his characters and to the story. Alas, I now have to try and contain my patience for installment #3. I will look forward to greeting my Covenant friends! ( soon, I hope ? )
I CAN’T WAIT FOR THE SECOND BOOK
Read more...When I finished the book, I immediately emailed the author and asked for more. This book was well written. My rating would be a WOW.
The characters were believable in a fantacy word. As an adult I was engrossed in the story but I think young adults and teen would love it. In fact I bought another book for my young friends. I loved the cover and, by looking at the twins you can understand how this story could be believable. If you love battles, this book has a whopper. If you don’t become a fan of Peter Cruikshank and the Dragon Called Legend you’re missing out on a great experience. Dont’t miss out. Happy reading…..
An Epic Adventure
Read more...I really enjoyed reading this book as well as the first book “Fire of the Covenant”. It is a wonderful story of bravery and friendship as well as good versus evil. This book is very well-written and a true epic fantasy. I would highly recommend this book to everyone looking for fantasy, or adventure with great characters and a very rich plot. The author spent a tremendous amount of time imagining this world and the beings and creatures that dwell within. There is rich complexity to all the characters and filled with enough action and adventure to satisfy any diehard “Lord of the Rings” reader. I would highly recommend this book as well as the “Fire of the Covenant” to any fan of the epic fantasy, adventure genre.
A very well written, engaging, traditional fantasy novel.
Read more...Don’t let the cover fool you! I write that first because I am not a fan of this style of cover art!
However, “Fire of the Covenant” is a very well written, traditional epic fantasy! There is something in here for every reader of fantasy to enjoy – action, adventure, battles, magical creatures…even a smattering of romance. The novel is well structured, and moves at a good pace. The action scenes are engrossing and the dialogue convincing. What I want when I read a fantasy novel is to be transported from the hum drum world around me and entertained.
If a book does this and I can visualise it as I read, then I am happy. “Fire of the Covenant” delivered all this! I look forward to the sequel.
Fantastic and Original Story!
Read more...I found this book fantastic. Compelling and original storyline. The author layered a solid fictional history, deep character development, and exciting action into what I hope will become the foundation of an epic series. I can’t wait to see what this author does in the future.
