  • The Black Knight on Nov. 02, 2012

    The characters are all highly intriguing, and the story (as well as the several chapters dedicated to backstory) is engrossing.

    The characters are absolutely wonderful, and I loved each of them. The plot and wonderful characters made this a page-turner for me. Some of the dialog and general style of writing was distracting for me - at times I felt it was inconsistent - but easy enough to learn to accept as this writer's voice.

    It took me about 5 chapters before I really adjusted to the writing style, but I guessed correctly it would be worth it. The book is titled "The Deep Forest Elves" and for the first half of the book you're left wondering why: there are no elves or forests to be seen. Amanda's journey to find the elves is itself a page-turner. Amanda faces crisis after crisis and discovers some genuinely interesting creatures. The transition to the deep forest and the elves was surprisingly jarring for me after the non-stop action of the first half of the book. It was difficult to adjust to the new characters and to really warm up to them, but by the end of this book I was invested in all of them. A great read and I followed it immediately with the next book in the series.

    The second book in the Amanda Ackers series picks up right where the first left you hanging, which is a good thing. Amanda now has a gaggle of new friends and enters into a new and equally exciting series of adventures. Much backstory is provided on some of the items she found in her earlier travels which introduces a more epic storyline involving many more characters and their histories. I am excitedly looking forward to the third book of the series.
