Author Summary
When
mercenary Will Blackmane discovers that he is the living embodiment of a Titan
- a god from an age all but forgotten - his world comes crashing down around
him. Hounded relentlessly by the beings who drove his kind into exile, he must
become the leader the world needs and unite the warring nations of Pallamar
under one banner if he and his allies are to survive. His only chance of
success rests with the other Titans, finally returned after five hundred years
of hiding - and with Clare, an extraordinary soldier from an annihilated city
far to the west. The growing bond between them is a strange and unexpected one,
but it may be all that stands between them and the encroaching darkness.
My Thoughts
Epic Fantasy based on Greek Mythology…this novel is pure GOLD!
Searching for something different to read one day, I stumbled across
this gem. Not my usual genre, but I wanted to treat my imagination to the exquisite
beauty of an epic fantasy. My love for all things Greek mythology led me to
discover Fire Heart and my interest
was piqued. And wow, I have to say to you readers, if you are as well in need of
something wonderfully different from our normal paranormal read, then this is it for you.
If you check out this link, you can go to Amazon’s Look Inside, where you can read the Prologue for yourself. As soon as I read it, I knew I had to read the entire novel.

The original worldbuilding in this novel is honestly some of the
most impressive I’ve seen. The creation theory based on Greek myth is
brilliant, the detailed imagery recounted throughout is spellbinding, and the
characterization is superb. Every Titan, human and villain developed so
skillfully, making it impossible not to invest in their plight and struggle to save
the world from the Fallen Ones.
This author is seriously gifted. If you are a fan of epic
fantasies such as George R.R. Martin’s “A Song of Ice and Fire” (Game of
Thrones), or J.R.R. Tolkien’s “Lord of the Rings”, then you will enjoy this
tale composed by this new author. I can’t wait until the second in this series!
Oh, and if/when you read it, you’ll need more. So the author
provides a few teasers on his website for Book #2. Just click here to check
them out. And while there, take a minute to check out the artwork on his blog. There
are some seriously awesome sketches of the characters in the novel. Amazing!
Happy Reading!!
