Synopsis: Danger is never far away in Middle On.
It has been
thirteen years since Orryk's father disappeared.
A strange letter
is discovered in a journal that starts our hero on an adventure to find the man
that abandoned him, his brother, and his mother. The question on everyone's
mind: what really happened to make the man vanish?
A town that always
seemed boring and ordinary suddenly becomes alive with threat and enchantment.
The search for clues throws Orryk into circumstances that are too unbelievable
and too wild for him to handle alone, and makes him wonder how he ever missed
all the strange and bizarre things happening in Middle On.
The fight for
clues takes our hero through some of the most challenging trials of his life
and forces Orryk to decide which morals to bend, or break, to get what he
wants.
Set in a time of
gaslights, wagons, and stone paved highways, this is a fantasy adventure where
people and things, even the most ordinary, are not what they seem.
Book Review:
The
Middle On was interesting, in ways. I enjoyed the distopic world that was
created, it was different from a lot of things I've read. The characters were
fun, as well. They definitely seemed to fit the worlds they lived in , they
acted as if they'd lived in that world forever. They had, of course, lived
their all of their lives, but the sad fact is that there are books where all of
the characters seem out of place. Even with all of this, I still felt bored by
the book. Maybe it's just me and my personal preferences, but I actually had
some difficulties getting into this book. There were entertaining parts, and
some interesting revelations, but all in all it seemed very flat.
All in All:
If
you're looking for a fantasy book with interesting characters and a determined
main character, I definitely advise you read this book.
