My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This series gets better and better with each book!

There is something about Jeffrey L. Kohanek's writing that makes you forget the world around you, and get lost within the pages of his tale.


In the third installment of The Fate of Wizardoms Series, the plot thickens, the mystery deepens and the characters shine.

The Eight Wizardoms are threatened like never before. By monsters from legend, that arise and stalk the land and by a power-hungry wizard lord, who seeks world domination. But that is not the worst of it. The Balance of magic keeps shifting and the Gods may not welcome the change.

Our band of reluctant heroes are continuing their quest to stop the chaos sweeping over the Eight Wizardoms. And this part of their journey takes them to the fabled Temple of the Oracle, home of The Seers of Kelmar, a reclusive sect of prophets. They claim the future has become obscured from their visions and require help in divining what foreboding future awaits the Eight Wizardoms.

The pacing is little slower this time around, not so full of battle scenes. And yet, the tale is even more engaging. Because the pieces start falling into place and we start to get some answers. And then there is that irresistible charm of the characters who grow and develop right before our eyes.

Jerrell aka Jace, the thief, starts settling down a little. Hard not to do when princess and master wizardess Narine has had him bewitched - in the best sense of the word. :D Narine on the other hand, is slowly beginning to discover her more playful and daring side, constantly taking the rest of the band by surprise.
Adyn and Rhoa don't shine so much in this part of the tale, but Rawk the maker, on the other hand... I am so eager to see how things will continue with his newly found feelings for his - up till now - good friend. :) Nope - I'm not telling you who that is. You're gonna have to read this to find out. Though you've probably already guessed if you've read books 1 and 2.
Brogan, the retired soldier.... I absolutely loved him here! And Blythe, his companion, perhaps even more. Princess Priella is also a very interesting addition and I'm eager to see if she'll join the good side or revel in the dark.

The Fate of Wizardoms is an engaging epic fantasy series with something for every single reader out there. Wonderful wordbuilding, an ingenious magic system, beautifully crafted characters, great mystery and intrigue, witty banter and fun filled adventure, as well as dash of romance.

It is a wonderful and gripping tale that I highly recommend to all fantasy lovers out there.
