--Books and Movie Reviews, Roberto Mattos

 

This is a new edition of ONLY THE WORTHY, significantly rewritten and newly published in December, 2018!

 

 

THE WAY OF STEEL is a riveting new fantasy series by Morgan Rice, #1 bestselling author of the 17 book fantasy series THE SORCERER’S RING, which begins with A QUEST OF HEROES (book #1), a free download with over 1,300 five star reviews!

 

ONLY THE WORTHY (The Way of Steel—Book 1) tells the epic coming of age story of Royce, 17, a peasant farmer who senses he is different, that powers reside within him beyond what he can understand. When his true love, Genevieve, 17, is stolen from him, he must risk it all to wage war with the nobles and save his love.

 

Banished from his homeland, sentenced to the infamous Red Isle—a barren island known for turning boys into warriors, and for leaving behind more dead than alive—Royce must hope to survive.

 

Genevieve, meanwhile, desperate for Royce’s return, is forced to inhabit the cruel and conniving world of aristocracy, immersed in a world of cutthroats and liars.

 

As Royce’s powers develop, and as he learns of his secret lineage, he can only wonder: is he the destined one?

 

ONLY THE WORTHY weaves an epic tale of friends and lovers, of knights and honor, of betrayal, destiny and love. A tale of valor, it draws us into a fantasy world we will fall in love with, and appeals to all ages and genders.

 

 

Book #2--ONLY THE VALIANT--is also now available!

reads as if drafted by a high school student, little world development . more narrated or explained character drives feelings or reactions not much actually being revealed in "the story"with you along for the ride as a well written story can do. so not very immersive. sorry but just could not slog through more than a few chapters.

I bought this book as many probably will as a fan of morgan rice's work but the writing is so naive for instance early on royce's mother says that she had grown up never knowing her parents, a few pages on she remembers her father telling her to always stand up to bullies. And there was mistake after mistake in grammar and suchlike, this book is one for the gravy train. Never again

No idea how this book has so many good reviews. This book is tipical of Morgan Rice, in fact it's the same plot points and characters they always write. Facts are contradictory, plots points are stupid, characters and their actions unbelievable and unbelievably stupid. It's free, but I really feel I should be paid to read it. Clearly an editor never was...
