Summary: Fresh and fun fantasy that pulls you in from the first page
Review: From the very first sentence of The Seer's Quest - "Bloodied clouds clawed their way through the dark sky that was shackled to the barren land below." - the reader is swept into this enthralling tale. Chad Corrie has crafted not just a single novel, but the first installment in a trilogy both structurally and emotionally complex and rewarding. In dueling societies of Masters and slaves, the powerful and powerless, the quest transcends mere freedom and rises to the level of this otherworldly's sheer survival.

In masterful prose that sparkles with brilliant metaphors and touching psychological insights, Corrie dazzles the reader and makes turning the next page an absolute necessity. Full of wonderfully, fresh characters - Dugan, the Telborian; Rowan, the Nordican; the captivatingly beautiful Clara; Kylor, Hoodwink, Relforaz, and many more - The Seer's Quest delights as it frightens us, capturing our imaginations and pulling us relentlessly along on our heroes' journey.

The non-stop action takes us through magical, enchanted lands in search of a key, the answer, the final solution to the mystery...we shall not reveal. Come! Enter this mesmerizing universe of demons, elves, hobgoblins, incarnate evil, and manifested good. Find out for yourself what a great story is all about. Destined to become a classic, The Seer's Quest will hold you spellbound and breathless for its sequel!

Summary: Familar but new
Review: I just put down this book after blazing through it over the weekend. It was a real good read and I would recommand it to anyone who likes a little more character development with their characters rather than mindless hack and slash that pops up in most fantasy fiction today.

It still had action, don't get me wrong, but it was smart action that made sense and didn't seem tacked on like I feel like many of the books I've read in the recent months have had the feeling of being.

It also has a real unique world which I hope gets explored in more depth in the books to come since this is a trilogy. Seems like it will to if, according to Corrie's site at least (www.chadcorrie.com).

The interior art is much better than the cover in my opinion so don't judge it by that. I almost did. The maps are great too.

Summary: Fun twists on old ideas
Review: I really liked the way he took the old fantasy races we've been seeing for years in a lot of fantasy books and made them a little more unique and original. When I first saw what he did with elves I was just digging it from there on out.

I love elves and always had a way I thought they should be in my head but now I think I'll always think of them as he had them in his book. Not to mention what he did with the other races to some degree and even humans.

Just a real fun read all the way around.
