Spellscribed: Ascension Review Spotlight

Kingko

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the Best Second books I have ever read,

"Unfortunately many great stories suffer from erosion. As a series progress the mechanics of its world sometimes lose definition where your emersion is broken by contradictions and the occasional bending of the rules. Now this can happen in a good way and it can happen in a bad way. When a character is developing skills to face a foe or insurmountable obstacles in there way and you can feel them working themselves and you with them to achieve victory, this can be a very rewarding experience. However when a character arrives at their proving grounds and just so happens to discover something next to them that can overcome it or they just so happen to discover an ability they have that is perfect for this situation. That can really throw you out of the story. However in Spellscribed: Ascension there are none of these problems. The characters develop in an organic way that fits in the universe. Even some of problems from the last book, such as the occasional erratic behavior of characters has been fix and even improved in that the characters are more flushed out and the rules for the magic system are more reinforced as well. This leaves you with some idea about what characters might do sometimes in situations, but what really makes this an exhalant story is that the characters surprise you they reinvent what they can do with their skills without breaking rules of the world. Even the problem that most second books have is handled, the story is encapsulated in the book while still leaving room for cliff hangers for the next book. I loved the first book and I love this book and I can’t wait for more."
