Review: Solid and Entertaining story
Rating: 4 out of 5

I find that most of the free books are average or sub-par, so I was pleasantly surprised at how engaging this story was.  This book is not for you if you are looking for a grand scale fantasy with an appendix, diagram, or encyclopedia of characters to keep track of.  There is only one main character and a couple of solid support characters.  This allows for strong character development and the author was successful in making you care what happens to the main character.  The plot slowly reveals why the main character has never returned to his homeland in 15 years and what makes him tick.  The pacing was excellent and I could not put the book down; I ended up purchasing the second book immediately to see what happens next.Since the book is free I highly recommend you read it to see if you like it.
