The Battle for Andalon is on and all Hands are on Deck!” ”In this dystopian vision, author T.B.Phillips has created a page-turner. The writing style is cinematic, the pace is good, and the characters are captivating. I especially like the female heroines, who are feisty warriors. There is plenty of contrast in the depiction of characters and they feel real because of their human flaws. The epic sea-battles are especially convincing, since the author draws on a world he knows well. The best thing about this book is the detailed world-building. There is a sense of mystery and a world beyond the book, a magical or spiritual dimension which is explored by the emotants and their animal familiars. Co-existing with this idea of magic and prophecy, is the reality of political machinations and a brutish world where duplicity reigns. The book is thought-provoking." - Suzy Davies, ⭑⭑⭑⭑⭑ "Sometimes you read a book and realize you're reading art. This book does that." "I was absolutely blown away by the rich descriptions and well-formed action sequences. This book is a clinic in writing artistry. It was outstanding in every regard. If there was an option for a sixth star, this book should get it. This book was turned up to 11 all the way to the end. Nice Work." - ZombieTex, ⭑⭑⭑⭑⭑ "A fantastic tale with pirates, sword fights, magic, love, betrayal, secrets and more!" "TB Phillips is becoming a master-craftsman weaving a beautiful tapestry of characters, adventure and wonder. The imagery of the battles at sea, the Pescari people, and even the evil that lurks behind the book cover is magnificently written. You will latch onto each character and hope your beloved favorites survive to the end of the series. Phillips has a vivid imagination that compels the reader to turn the pages faster and faster until they finish with a desire to read more." - Maria Thompson, ⭑⭑⭑⭑⭑
