Ugh
I have never written a review before on Amazon.com., but the sheer horror of this book compelled me to say something, if just to save people who might otherwise buy this book some money. This is the some of the worst tripe that I have ever read. I couldn't get through five pages before giving up in disgust. Grammar mistakes aside, the writing style is awful and the plot and characters are unoriginal, cliche, and just bad. This author was below compared to Tolkien, but surely Tolkien is spinning in his grave at the very thought that this garbage could even begin to approach his works.As an avid fantasy reader I'm aware that fantasy is often not taken seriously as a genre, and it is because authors like this are actually able to get their stuff published and make the entire genre look bad.
