'Official Review: Tsalix Silverthorn and the Scepter of Destiny' by Richard Siddoway is a full-length description of the fantasy tale! Both the story and the points relevant to the book have been explained in great detail in the review! The reviewer's reactions to the book are interesting to read! Nice to learn that the reviewer enjoyed reading the description of the locations and the map at the beginning pages showing all the territories mentioned in the story! Reading the review was a fun way for me to learn new words and complex sentences in English!

It's not often you come across adventurous stories. The struggle for power both in kingship and politics will continue forever as long as greed and selfishness exist. Amidst war and other vices, some opposition can go to length to sabotage even something good that may benefit the entire populace. This story fits that situation perfectly. What can we say. We can only observe. Great review, congrats on being BOTD.

This seems like an interesting book. I love books dated in pre-historic past as it always seemed alluring to me. Considering this as "the best book of the year" is definitely an upvote on my to-read list. Gore doesn't really bother me but I appreciate that this review informed me of such contents as sometimes, it still takes me aback. Thank you for the great review!

I haven't come across a good fantasy in a while,but, from the review, this seems like a particularly well-crafted example of the genre. At this time of year,I'm on the look-out forsuitable holiday gifts and I think this will do nicely formynephews. I'll have to read it first to make sure,naturally. :wink2: Thanks for the review.

I like that the author wrote it from a third-person point of view. That kind of writing style adds an air of unexpectedness and complexity to the characters' flow of thought.

I'm one of the readers that are allergic to gory scenes; I'll skip this one. But the story is an adventurous one. Great review.

This book sounds very promising. I like going on fantasy adventures with a team, so I became interested right away. It's refreshing to hear that there is no profane or foul language as well. I can handle a bit of violence if it serves to tell the story. Most maps I find in fantasy novels are more confusing than helpful. However, it sounds like this one fared better. Well edited, good suspense, and clear descriptions, I'm game! I'll add this to my list to check out. Thank you for your review and the rad recommendation.

I don't mind a bit of gore, and the fantasy ''quest' story is a trope I always enjoy. Add to that the fact that the author has already written bestsellers and I think I'm convinced! Although I've never really found maps at the front of the book helpful, I'm willing to give it a go. I love that you outlined the high points of the book. Great Review!

Prince Abadon seems to be the villain of the story. I'm itching to find out how he was overthrown. But this review is generally well written. Thanks.

I loved how it swings immediately into action, from the pages I sampled. I am not so much into fantasy novels, so I'll have to pass this one. Thank you for a thorough review

Wow, sounds like a literary masterpiece! The world building sounds something akin to Game of Thrones. I think this read is right up my alley. Thank you so much for your well-written review! Happy reading :techie-studyinggray:
