I have to admit that the first thing that drew me to "Seal of the King" was in fact the book cover, which just goes to show that a great book cover can do a lot for sparking your interest. However, beyond that, my attention was quickly transferred to the novel as I found myself swept up in this intriguing fantasy novel that felt refreshingly original and vibrantly action-packed. Ralph Smith does a wonderful job of keeping this story fast-paced and vividly written, from the strong dialogue that pushed the plot along to the intriguing characters that make you feel invested in seeing just how David and Aurora are going to survive the showdown with the Dark One. The writing is smooth and flows flawlessly from scene to scene, keeping the pace up and the reader's interest locked in from start to finish. Overall, this was an imaginative story that made for a really entertaining novel... it was well worth the read. I'm actually really interested to see what else springs from the author's mind because this was a fantastic novel.
