BLADE FORGED IN DARKNESS - By M.A.N

Unique is probably the best way to describe this book. It's unique in its point of view, it's unique in its setting, it's unique in how it approaches...well everything, it has a unique protagonist, a unique pace, a unique style of writing, unique action, and overall it is a unique experience. Nothing's like it. And it works. In this case, unique = great.
This is the most action-packed book I've ever read. Every fight is epic and every move is perfectly described in a way that I can perfectly envision it in my head. It is fast paced with a great setting, good plot, and great characters.

Thanks for the review. Looks like, you enjoyed reading the war story of this book. Sad to know that there were many grammar errors which made your reading slow. I think this book is for war stories lovers. Congrats to the author on BOTD!

I'm always up for a good fantasy read. This one seems to have a lot of adventure as well. I haven't read any books in the second person POV though, so that's something new to look forward to.

A fantasy tale of a warrior, Blade, written in the second person perspective sounds engaging. Too bad the author shifted in between perspectives. I enjoyed reading your review!

Interesting. It's been a long time I read a book in the second person POV, and this will be a great tool to use in teaching my creative writing class at school. That it's a fantasy/sci-fi genre makes it all the more appealing. I'll grab this one real quick, thanks!

The author uses the second person point of view to connect the reader to Blade, the lead character, who fights many battles to prove himself. The adventure is thrilling, and the mystery will keep readers guessing.

Inside the book,you come across another book which is meant for acquiring power to dominate others.Wars are won through these aides.I experienced a clear confusion due to second person and written mistakes.I would like to read it but. not to that extent ,as war scenes and wars are not of my type.Thanks for the review!…

This book is very over the top, I loved it. The part I liked best was where, in the middle of a fight, your opponent does a certain technique, and you think to yourself “I’d better not dodge this attack or the planet might shatter into little pieces.
It looks like it is a fight between good and evil, where evil wants to destroy our planet. Although it is difficult and time consuming to read a book with lots errors, I think this can make a good read. Thanks for a good and honest review.
