Roan:The Tales of Conor Archer looks like a great book to spend an evening curled up by the fire with, and after reading your very detailed review I must agree that it's more of a saga rather than simply a novel. I can't wait to delve deeper into the fantasy created by this very talented authors debut, and I really appreciate your taking the time to share your extremely thoughtful and intuitive review. Kudos!??????

Thanks for the great review! I'm not really into fantasy, so I don't think this is the book for me.

Very well written review!!! Thank you! I like how you said if the author made a mistake (if any at all), it would be that he set the bar super high for himself with his future writings. It is clear why this book was chosen for BOTD and BOTM! Congrats to the author!

A glowing review for a multi-faceted fantasy novel! Creatures, mythologies, and characters are good ingredients. The real question will be if it is so well put together that almost 600 pages is worth the time.

I've always been interested in books that are related to mythology, and the way you talk about world-building and character development really makes me want to read it! Unfortunately, I sampled the first ten pages and I thought the pacing was kind of slow, but great review nevertheless!

Frankly speaking, i do not usually read books of this genre but your review certainly compelled me to try this one out. Thank you.

This seems like an exciting book! I'm sure it contains catacombs of history and a struggle to defy the stigma attached to it. I really am interested in reading it! Congrats on the great review!
