Publisher Description
Colin Frake Fire Mountain
The world of Reanne has a secret bigger than the night sky. It lies buried deep under the town of Vigerock. It lives in the thoughts and dreams of the royals in Nightchurch. It is protected and watched over by a mysterious woman named Shore. It is cultivated and revered by the witches of Fire Mountain. It is bestowed upon unsuspecting young men who live out their days as giants, shunned by the lowlanders. Some call it magic or witchcraft, but others know better. Reanne is a unique place in the universe, an outpost that holds clues to the origin of existence.
Colin Frake knows nothing of these things and spends his afternoons wandering Owlfoot Canyon. He is fifteen years old, and is about to be drawn into an adventure of epic proportions.
Colin Frake Asclepius
In this second book of the series, a technologically wondrous world is revealed, masters of science and interstellar travel hidden from sight. A demon is moving to free himself from a watery prison. Feeding witches invade and do the unthinkable. A mysterious object tears through the sky, sending Vigerockers into a tailspin. Colin is reunited with Petunia, but struggles with his baffling connection to the animal kingdom. An entire town is possessed and marches to confront the Fire Mountain Clan.
Multiple realms are on a collision course, and each has pieces of the puzzle that is Reanne. A magical creature named Tuma knows this all too well. She is a keeper, an ancient guardian of the lands around Fire Mountain. Her dreams take her to the stars and back again.
This ebook contains both book 1 and 2 of the series. Over 2 hours of live orchestral soundtrack from Two Steps From Hell composers Thomas Bergersen and Nick Phoenix embedded in the book along with 84 illustrations from Otto Bjornik.
Customer Reviews
A fantastic, epic, sequel worthy of the name TSFH
Once more I tell the world to let Two Steps From Hell take you on a magical journal: filled with mystical creatures, adventure, romance, wonderful characters and live music. This enhanced eBook has it all, a great story, beautifully drawn images, and music placed strategically at certain intervals that make it feel as though you are reading a movie instead of just a normal book.
Before I divulge into the review of the book itself, I want to revisit a point I made during my review of Colin Frake on Fire Mountain (the first in the series). I mentioned how Nick, a music composer, could use work on his writing style. I believe that in the two years since the first book's release, Nick has certainly improved immensely. It was like reading it by a different author.
I loved every minuet of this novel, from the new characters introduced at the beginning (and through the novel), to the cliff hanger at the end. Asclepius is so much more than I expected and for all the good reasons. To think there are multiple worlds that all intertwined completely hooked my interest. I loved the use of magic and advance technologies The new characters fit nicely into the story as well.
There is still mysteries to be undiscovered and the book leaves you hanging and earning for more. With three more to come (if I'm correct), the world of Reanne is about to get even more fascinating that it already is.
As I ended in my first review, I say once more; Buy it now, you won't regret it. Read the book, enjoy the pretty pictures, and bask in the music live you've never done before in an eBook.
