Customer Reviews

This novel excels when it is permitted, but the introduction of an expansive fantasy world overwhelm

"Beneath the Fall" is the first installment in the 'Sunborn Rising' series. The outstanding feature of the novel is the world which was built around it. It is unique, well developed, and illustrated beautifully with over a dozen full-color pictures. The storyline was clearly written for a younger audience and provides a fun, fast-paced adventure for younger readers. Ironically, one of the strengths of the book is also its biggest weakness. While the world is truly amazing, the author’s desire to describe it can bog the story down in spots. The alien nature of the world also makes it difficult to become truly immersed in the book until you have enough background to fully understand the setting. All in all, though I found "Beneath the Fall" to be an enjoyable reading experience, it is clearly meant as a children’s book and would undoubtedly engross younger readers even more than it did me.
