Review: Epic Literary Talent!
Rating: 5 out of 5

I read THE SABLE CITY because I've read other stories from this author and really enjoyed them. These were short stories, though, so decided i wanted to try something with more meat so-to-speak. Well, THE SABLE CITY is like a five course meal at a five star restaurant. The story truly belongs in the epic category yet reads very fast--mainly because you want to find out what happens next. The novel is filled with colorful characters, my favorite(perhaps because I am male) being Matilda Lanai, though she goes by Tilda. Tilda is everything a reader would like to see in a heroine--sexy, beautiful, intelligent, and yes she's damn good with all kinds of weaponry, including but not limited to swords, daggers, clubs and bows and arrows. All kinds of interesting creatures can be found in this epic fantasy--stirges, piercers, hobgoblins, bugbears, bullywugs, and dragons, and more. THE SABLE CITY is a fun literary read. Highly recommended for those lovers of epics and new worlds. And this was only book one--wow!
