This is an amazing story it grabs you from the first page to the last. It has you on the edge of your sest. 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.

Title:
“We came to your aid because we believe you’re here to ….free the slaves.”
That summarizes the motive of one of the 5 people’s involvement in the war that is the center stage of this book. This book has an excellent preface giving the history of the 5 peoples. We are thus prepared to enter right into the story from where Vol. 1 left off. Woven around the scaffolding of the resistance to the Rakanese that develops to a war, are the lives of people from the other 4 peoples (Holfast, Kellach, Sanaog, Rahain). We see how each people has suffered under the Rakanese, and also the tendency for many to exhibit racial prejudice. The theme of a “creator” is a slim thread that is occasionally seen, but who that is and what his plan is, is not clear. We are given a few clues at the end, that make it seem that this creator is not necessarily a benevolent being who wants the best for all of his creation, but we are not quite certain of this. How this particular storyline will work out cannot be guessed at this point, raising anticipation for the next volumes. This is an action-packed story, that is difficult to put down. I am eager to see what the author has planned next for us.

ONE HEART POUNDING ADVENTURE!!!
OH MY! Man, talk about down and dirty. A rollercoaster of unexpected events and surprising mishaps catapults all of your spinning emotions bursting into play smoothly. Christopher came blazing through with this pulse racing, action packed, hard hitting, page turning thrill ride with a nerve racking storyline and pulse pounding plot that propels this bad boy to life beautifully. Trials and tribulations, along with a few bumps, bruises and scrapes draw you in so deep you feel as though you’re there with them. The characters are authentic, receptive and so realistic with depth and individuality they blend and flow along fluidly. The scenes are written with such realism it makes a perfect backdrop for this amazing high octane treasure. Amazing job Christopher, thanks for sharing this bad boy with us.
The Severed City(Magelands Epic #2) by Christopher Mitchell this is book number two in this awesome series. I highly recommend this story to everyone.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book
I’ve really enjoyed this series. It’s well written and great characters. Love the author Christopher Mitchell. He has done a wonderful job on this series and I highly recommend. (I received this book as an arc and am leaving a voluntary honest review)
Book 2 in the series is even better than book 1! I couldn’t put this down. The characters become more complex and developed, which I didn’t even think was possible. They are forced to make choices without seeing the whole picture and the results of those choices have real consequences. The story flows smoothly and time flies by when reading this. I highly recommend it to all fantasy lovers and believe that this may someday be as epic as Lord of the Rings.
