Stumbled upon this book a few years ago at a used book store while looking for LOTR and after quite some time finally got around to reading it. For a book written by a man in highschool and college it is quite good. Truthfully one of the more recent fantasy novels that kept my attention. After seeing on the cover that it was a part of the Tides of Fate series I was quite excited to get into the next one. Unfortunately, Drew never continued this series and this is his only book. It definitely deserves a sequel.
