Review: A new twist on the quest story
Rating: 4 out of 5

I read the first volume of this trilogy and came back for the rest. As other reviews have mentioned, you'll need to disregard the science anomalies. Once you do, this is an interesting approach, with gravity/antigravity technology in a technologically primitive society. The characters are not only believable but sympathetic, with good and evil not necessarily black and white. I thought there were a bit too many aerial fighting scenes, but I'm not a fan of that sort of thing; it may appeal to those who prefer a lot of action sequences. The story, although it follows a traditional line of the quest to save civilization, had enough plot twists to keep me engaged and even wishing there was a 4th volume. I recommend this to sci-fi and fantasy fans.
