Review of Praetors of Lost Magic, Book 1
Titus Van Kleeck's Praetors of Lost Magic Book 1: The Mage's Gambit is a magical fiction book full of thrills, suspense, betrayal, and conflict centered around the protagonist Koren Hrothgaard and a prophecy. First of all, Koren was a young man who lived in the town of Angoma, as shown in the book. He was an orphan who had resided in several foster homes. He was said to have immense potential as an Eldari mage; he had already displayed his predictive skills by saving a young girl from certain death. The Eldari mages were a group of magic users and official law enforcers before they were labeled terrorists by the government because they became power-hungry rather than guarding the populace. The Kensu knights guarded the populace while politicians administered the government.
Koren encountered Xan along the way, who offered to teach him magic techniques so he could realize his potential and fulfill his destiny. They traveled and met with a variety of interesting people, including Captain Adrianna, William, and Amkala, among others, to fulfill this prophecy. Eighteen months into his training, Koren learned that the Kul'nah warlock intended to conquer and subjugate all of the nations, so he decided to embark on a mission to stop their leader, Vaviena Kanesh, and her dark god. They came upon many battles along the route. Did Koren succeed in completing his task? Was the prediction realized? Grab a copy to learn more about these thrilling occurrences.
Many interesting scenarios, quotes, personalities, and groups may be found throughout this book. Even though Captain Adrianna was my favorite character, Koren was constantly in the spotlight. Her bravery in fighting for her desire to see her father once more, even though doing so would have cost her life, struck me. I have to praise the author for their superb writing. The book was suspenseful and unpredictable. Nobody would have guessed that Xan had been working for the Kul'nah warlock all along. I was surprised by it. My favorite scenario occurred at the Chasm of Ordura when Koren cast the Praetor's spell in retaliation for his friend's death. In general, I'd say the book was worthwhile.
The book was entertaining to read. I had a huge smile on my face as I read it. Reading the quotes was interesting. My favorite quotation was from Xan, who also added, "Keep your friends close but your enemies closer." From the first page to the last, I couldn't take my eyes off the pages as I tried to predict what would happen next.
There was nothing in this book that I didn't enjoy because I was so happy and satisfied with it, even though it appears there will be a sequel. as I wait to learn new stories. I commend the editor for a job well done. The book was flawless and, in my opinion, exceptionally well-edited. I rate this book five out of five stars for the aforementioned reasons. I recommend reading and savoring one of the intriguing magic-filled suspense novels in this book if you appreciate reading magic-based fiction.
