ONE INTENSE EXPERIENCE!!!
Aaaaah Snap! A spinning, twisting vortex of inadvertent happenstance and surprising mishaps catapults your swirling emotions into play fluidly. All the drama, angst, danger and suspense blaze through melding this baby together one jagged piece at a time. The characters are authentic and realistic with such traits and qualities that blend with one another in a perfect balance. The scenes are strikingly sharp with abundant details and descriptions you have no problem picturing each scenario creating a colorful backdrop that makes the storyline pop. Remarkable job Christopher, thanks for sharing.
Needs of the Empire(Magelands Epic #3) by Christopher Mitchell is an amazing read. This is book number three in this amazing story that I have loved reading. I hihghly recommend this story to everyone who loves reading about magic in their stories.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book
Ok, it’s the middle of the night and, while I may regrets the loss of sleep tomorrow, there’s no way I will regret the binge read that I just did oh the third and fourth books of Christopher Mitchell’s The Magelands Epic, Needs of the Empire and Sacrifice. No surprise since I enjoyed books 1 and 2 do much, but still, I wasn’t actually intending to binge. I just couldn’t stop. This is addictive stuff and totally fun to dive into. If you’ve not read the first two books I strongly recommend doing so first. Then be prepared to be absorbed by these volumes. Read the publisher’s blurbs to find out what these stories are about. Each is totally a well-written blast. But for the fact that I’m literally dictating this review to my husband from my hospital bed I could go on and on with praises. The book definitely deserves it. Since I can’t do that I will simply note that the book is most definitely one to read, and it is very easy to highly recommend.
This is an amazing story it grabs you from the first page to the last. It has you on the edge of your seat. And a real page turner. You have epic battle scenes. And the scenes are written so well that you can vividly see them as you read. This is definitely a must read. The Author has really hit it out of the park. I would love to see this on the big screen.

The author has done a wonderful job on this series. It’s well written and great characters. I’ve been hooked from the beginning. I highly recommend. (I received this book as an arc and am leaving a voluntary honest review)
This series just keeps getting better and better! Character development increases, scene intensity develops more and more, and choices become more important. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series!

TITLE: Will fighting the malevolent Emperor save the world or result in it’s destruction?
Fascinating series—can scarcely put it down!
Upheavals of empires, back and forth, as a new “true religion” claiming to worship the creator and to be doing his will, seeks to gather any gifted from all 5 races. The stated purpose: studying these people. As the episode progresses, we begin to see the malevolent purpose unfold, and the abuse and deaths of many of the gifted. Just who this “creator” is, however is still unclear, although he seem to be becoming more of a destroyer by the end. For what purpose? (Or is that the purpose—to destroy everything the True Creator made?). A truly unique world vision.
I received a free copy of this book. My review is voluntary, and I have no financial relationship with the author or publisher.
