Because fantasy novels are regularly cultural phenomenons, many of us readers are on a quest of our own to find literature to fill those voids where we've finished one and are looking for another. We also crave long pieces of work like these three. Those weeks and months we spend reading just to get to the end, and only to be saddened when its over it's the reason why we go for it.This trilogy by M. R. Mathias gives us that opportunity again. There is so much content in each individual book - too much to discuss or even have a favorite part. But I will say that each event is distinct; it is not just like something you have read before. M. R. Mathias tells us himself that years were spent writing and put a lot of work in - and that is very clear as soon as you get a good pace into the first book. It contains all the elements that you would expect including treks into mysterious and supernatural places, enemies and allies along the way, unexpected obstacles, trickery, magic, deceit, love and lust, et cetera. The best part is that absolutely none of it can be foreseen, and the author's prose is so remarkable.Considering the relatively new publication of the trilogy, I expect the collection to really take off to insurmountable heights now. From what I see from the other reviews, I am not alone with my sentiments. Definitely make this the choice for the person in your life who lives and breathes for the next new and best novels. You will be forever grateful for those bragging rights.
