I think this book is a good book. I enjoyed it and could not put in down. Sometimes I did feel it was a little wordy in some areas of the book but I was not distracted but it. I think I would read another book from this author. * I received this book from a LibraryThing giveaway in exchange for an honest review* ( )

I made the mistake of reading others reviews of this book prior to reading it myself. Luckily, I'm not big on others "reviews," preferring to gather my own opinion instead. One thing I will agree on many of the prior reviews is that the author does tend to ramble on; stating the same idea three different ways in succeeding paragraphs. He also overused metaphors to the point they were getting annoying. However, the premise of the book, and it's intended plot twists, did keep me reading through until I finished the book. The idea of a twenty-first century man being removed to another realm to live a live as the king of a magic-inspired world was phenomenal. I wish I could give full stars for this book, but the rambling on and over-use of metaphors brings it down one notch. I did enjoy the storyline immensely, and look forward to seeing how the storyline concludes in the next book. ( )
