In a world without magic, magic comes alive again and strange creatures are sighted that have lived only in legends.Delvers live along side of humans and are the only different race left from the times of magic. That is what humans and delvers thought.Ryson Acumen is a purebred delver, creatures of intense curiosity and speed of movement, and he is traveling to discover the cause of an unexplained disturbance of the land. During the beginning of his travels Ryson encounters a zombie that tries to kill him and an elf who befriends him. There are more races to meet and there is a quest... to race against more magic being released in the world.This first book of a trilogy builds a believable world and the action increases as the book moves along.Because the book started off as a slow read for me, I gave only gave it 4 stars. The last half of the book was worthy of a 5 star book and I'm looking forward to the next book in the trilogy, hoping it will be a true 5 star all the way from start to finish.I enjoyed the book and the characters and the action. If you like fantasy and action and epic adventure stories, you'll like this book.
