Or die in the act...Great for fans of The Wheel Of Time, and The Stormlight Archives! Captivating characters face near unimaginable odds as they’re forced into an epic struggle for survival in this thrilling 3 book and novella chronicles of the Flow of Power.
R.V. Johnson writes epic fantasy, both dark and light, and science fiction adventure mysteries that immerse you in a new world; inflaming your sense of wonder. Like the lush world of Astura where a great river of magical energy known as "The Flow" underlies the land and is only accessible to those who can Use... When those who seek power are denied it, war is inevitable. Welcome to The Flow of Power saga. R.V. Johnson grew up exploring the alienlike settings of red rock deserts and rugged mountains that inspired his love of exploring all worlds.
This series, the chronicles of the Flow of Power, came into being from my love of the two genres, science fiction & epic fantasy, and a strong desire to add elements of science into magic and vice versa. The two go well together. Some sciences seem magical and most magic would seem to have science fact behind it in order for it to work well.
An epic, thrilling fantasy adventure with interesting, diverse characters, plot twists, cool powers, crazy-looking monsters, and a mysterious new world. The writing style was a little complex for me-a non-native English speaker-so reading it took a little longer than normally. But I guess, my vocabulary is expanding. I truly enjoyed this series and will definitely continue with the rest of the series. Recommend!
I got nine tenths of the way through this book before I finally gave up. It has a lot of good points but is overcomplicated in the extreme and much of what people do is unclear. I may go back and finish it but at the moment I have lost the will to live.
