Fortress of Radiance The Karus Saga The Karus Sage Marc Alan Edelheit Books Reviews
- At first the prologue concerned me that the book would include multiple points of view, a style of which I am not a fan. But the main book stayed true to form and happily followed Karus. This made the read very enjoyable for me!
The book includes action, adventure and of course we learn more about the world and the “peoples†that populate it. Karus makes what I feel are smart logical decisions. The romans are true to the historical context of the time....so we get some historical knowledge along with the story.
Finished the book in two days and am looking forward to Karus reunion with his legion in the next book. - The epilogue was the best part and displayed Edelheits normal brilliance. This book was really disappointing. I'm not sure why or what happened but this title is not representative of his other works. Literally every other book he has written is fantastic. I highly encourage anyone who hasn't to read his other novels and I will be grabbing his next karus book.
He might of been rushed. All I know Is that this entire book could of been written by him using 25% of the words and the plot inched forward instead of glided like it usually does. I feel like the next book is where the other 75% of the words should of gone towards. I'll say one other thing before I go....at some point you need to write a real wizard battle. Constantly killing "insanely" powerful wizard's with sucker punch 2 second arrows worked well with Ely cause it was new and comically shocking, now it's just lazy. I sincerely hope the next installment is representative of your normal brilliance of clear,concise, well paced and interesting.
Summary of this book never ending dragon flight with slow crawl to a ruin that lead to predictable fights with an amazing epilogue. - It's no big secret that I enjoy Marc's work, but I'm honest enough to give criticism when it is due. That isn't happening here, as I thought this was a great continuation of the story. The relationship between the MC and his love is extended, he picks up his super sword, and he generally kicks butt on the baddies. Some of the bad guys (or gals - equal opportunity here) are a surprise which makes for some interesting reading, and we are most definitely setting up for more stories with Karus. You should definitely start with book 1 of the Karus Saga in order to fully understand the story and characters. Highly recommended.
- Really enjoyed this story, been waiting for it to come out. The Stiger Tales are a great series; the Karus books are shaping up to be just as good. The real problem is not wanting the story to end while you're reading it. Hopefully Marc can crank them out faster....Smile! His books are must reads for good adventure and story telling.
- I have enjoyed these stories from the beginning, when I picked up stigers tigers. Just a random choice. Now, I must say, karus story has me hooked as well. Takes of the seventh is another. Now I can hardly wait until the next one in any of these three series is out. Thank you Marc. Love the Q and A casts as well. More karus, please.
- I should just cut and paste my past reviews of this authors previous works...The are all well written, well edited and thoroughly entertaining. There is nothing to complain about unless, like me, I am impatiently awaiting the next offering. Congrats MAE. If you are a new reader to any of these series...don't start here. Go to the beginning, buy all of them, and start the adventure.
- After reading this i cannot wait for the next release. Marc weaves some great magic here, and a compelling new universe of planets under threat by Gods, Magicians and the ultimate good vs evil dynamics.
The characters evolve, the story deepens and the military Action is detailed and gripping. - I'm a fan of all MAE's books, and look foreword to each new book. Not all books can be brilliant, some are just good. This wasn't his best, but it was still a good book and helps fill in the early history of Ben Stiger's worlds. I know fans and publishers would like a new book every week, and authors get rushed by that, but haste isn't always the authors friend. MAE has created a great story line with Ben Stiger, and his achievements.
