I just finished the third book in this series and felt I should write a review of the first book so that I can share my thoughts as to if this book and series is worth your time.  In short, I am a "read-a-holic."  I have read 25 books since January 1st of this year from authors such as Terry Mancour,  Michael Radcliffe, Suzanne Collins,  James Luceno, Brandon Mull, Toby Neighbors, Martin Parece,  Geof Johnson,  T.B. Christensen,  Honor Reconteur,  Heath Pfaff,  John Dalton and now Brock Deskins with his "Sorcerer's Path Series."  I enjoyed all the books written by all the authors listed. Nonetheless, these stories by  Brock Deskins are my favorites, even more than the original and  wonderful  "Hunger Games" by Suzanne Collins.  The plots and characters are fresh enough to not be tiring.  The dialogue is good and the humor is great.  My wife has been startled more than once by a sudden unexpected  outburst of chortling on my part.  I have found it difficult to put the stories down and will start book 4 after posting this review.There are those who in reviewing this and the subsequent books rail against the author for several grammatical and spelling mistakes.  Although I would also prefer to not have to slow down to figure out what a mis-spelled word should have been, it is a sign of the times in the world of digital publishing.  Unlike many well know authors who have a small army of editors, publishers and others reviewing, editing and otherwise helping the author, Mr. Deskins like many new authors seemingly does not have this at his disposal at present.  I do not care.  I enjoy a good yarn and he delivers in a refreshingly entertaining way.  The story in books 1-3 involve hardship, bullying, wizards,  elves, dwarves,  Nobles and common people, rich and poor, dragons, wolves horses, tragedy and comedy.  My best to him to the rest of you who come to enjoy his writings.
