Description

Book One - Kirkus In the opening volume of a complex new fantasy series, Hammer offers readers lavish battles, dizzying amounts of gore, and a system of magical patrons called Battle Angels that fans of the Final Fantasy video games should enjoy. - Kirkus Reviews The battles, during which the Sons of Odin-and Jean, the Daughter of Thor-summon superpowered guardians, are splatterfests (demons are blasted "into dust and smoke, torn flesh and large spurts of dark blood"). - Kirkus Reviews A marathon of fantasy gore and slow-building characterizations in a land confronting demons. - Kirkus Reviews Book Two - BlueInk Hammer's vivid visual imagery ... makes the character's journeys exhilarating and the battle scenes intense. - BlueInk Reviews Druantia's Curse is entertaining and full of surprises-from wormholes to vampires-but it requires dedication to track all of the subplots. Casual readers of fantasy may be frustrated by the wealth of detail, but diehard fans will appreciate the Robert Jordan-esque layering of characters, relationships and lands that brings Kismeria to life. - BlueInk Reviews Book Two - Kirkus In this second installment of Hammer's (Odin's Awakening, 2014) epic fantasy series, the complexities of magical warfare and romantic loyalties continue. Taking center stage once again, however, are the action sequences. They're akin to panoramic oil paintings of orgiastic chaos, as when "Hawks, Crows and Pixies broke away from the Shadow Men to punch through vampire chests in bright flares....Skulls exploded on impact, limbs falling as torn debris." - Kirkus Reviews The use of time-travel and other twists-like the fallout from a romantic triangle among Adem, Jean, and Princess Isabella-deftly prepares fans for a rousing sequel. - Kirkus Reviews This immersive, colorful, and action-oriented fantasy series smoothly maintains its rapid pace. - Kirkus Reviews Book Three - Kirkus In his third installment of the series, Hammer continues to tap a vein of phantasmagoric mayhem that should mesmerize video gamers and fans of the Lord of the Rings alike. Nearly every page displays eye-popping battle visuals: "Lightning filled the sky, a rainbow of coloured bolts, a thousand falling every second to turn the grey haze into a bright neon flare." - Kirkus Reviews The underlying themes of humanity's imperfection and the individual's struggle toward a truer self permeate this narrative, which sets the heroes in a new direction. - Kirkus Reviews Provides an action-packed turning point in the series and sets the stage for fresh adventures. - Kirkus Reviews Book Five - KirkusHammer goes back to the deep imaginative well that has served him in the four prior volumes of this fantasy series. This volume explores father-son relationships and the missed opportunities therein. Magical action against countless creatures maximizes the gore. A sweetly surprising finale expands the potential of subsequent volumes. Readers craving another dose of superlative magic battles and ambitious plotting won't be disappointed. - Kirkus Reviews
