Disclosure: Author provided a copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.
Stumbling across a series of books that set tongues wagging and imaginations soaring is rather difficult. A fan of Epic Fantasy for decades, I can say that I am more than picky. Books, in general, must not only hook a reader from the opening sentence, but it must hold our attention throughout hundreds of pages. A rather formidable task in this day and age of publications. So, it was with great pleasure to have been introduced to the Valdaar’s Fist series which took me on a ride of unimaginable proportions.
The Library of Antiquity is the second installment of the series. It picks up with our band of misfits trained, rested and chomping on the bit to continue their quest. The cast must bring their A-Game as they enter a living library ready to thwart any entrant from solving it’s plethora of challenges. Magic, spells and potions are no match for this library as the cast soon realizes. The culmination of staggering events lead our tried and weary group on an exasperating maze towards either triumph or death.
A wicked tale Vance Pumphrey weaves on this fabulous second installment. I look forward to posting my review on the mischief and mayhem this cast of characters entertain in the third book titled Ice Homme.
Happy reading!
