Wizards and Warriors, Swords and Sorcerers-What's not to like? You might be thinking, "another fantasy novel, oh yeah" but not reading this is a mistake. Alto, farmer turned soldier is a very likable guy, you feel for him and it is not hard to root for him. Take away the fantasy and you have a timeless tale of someone who's taking the knocks of life and just rolling with the punches.In book one Alto's life gets  turned upside down, fate was not kind to him, but he has taken control of his life and is making the most of what fate has dealt him. If this is your 1st book in this series, please go back and read the beginning. This book works great as a series, but it also stands alone, Jason Hallstead, we use the tapestry in a world that is both fantastic and believable. He puts his characters and situations that require great strength of character to overcome.The book is fast-paced and Jason keeps the action coming. The blades of Leander can only get better. This is another win for Mr. Hallstead, this reviewer strongly suggest that if you're fantasy, science fiction fame add the Blades of Leander to your must read list.
