Book Review: From A Far Land (Jaben's Rift - Book 1)

From A Far Land

From A Far Land

by G.David Walker
My rating: 5 of 5 hearts


Synopsis:

Jason Bennett never intended to change the world, his own or anyone else's. But when an ordinary family vacation sends the teenager to Teleria, an extraordinary world of might and magic, his arrival sets the wheels in motion on events that will change that world forever...

Not quite the summer vacation he had in mind.

Review:

I've had this gem sitting on my kindle for quite a few months now. I downloaded it as a freebie from amazon and always figured that when I got bored it would be "something to browse through." Oh man! I'm so sorry that I didn't read this sooner.

This was easily one of the best fantasy novels that I've read this year. I absolutely loved it and devoured it in record speed. The story line and character development were superb. David Walker's powers of imagery make you feel like you're right there in Teleria. The battle scenes were among the best depicted. I would definitely recommend this book to all who have an affinity towards mages.... and even those that don't. I can't wait to read the sequel.
