I give Ring of Dragons (Age of the Sorcerers—Book Four) five stars. Author, Morgan Rice, has masterfully woven the plot and multitude of characters into a page-turning Epic. With this many characters an author often loses their way and the plot becomes confusing, unfinished or even boring. Not so in the Ring of Dragons. I was submerged in the story. I cared about the characters. I either loved them or hated them, and those I didn’t know well still served a purpose. Each character does a fine job of carrying their part to make the plot work. There’s no fluff. The words are carefully crafted and tell the story well as this magical world lures the reader forward a step at a time. The only thing I don’t like about the book, is that it doesn’t tie up all the plot threads but leaves the main story wide open and unfinished. It’s more than a cliff hanger. It leave you standing on the cliff. But I love the story enough to buy the next book in the series to keep reading.
This book is for fantasy lovers who love dragons, swords and sorcery carried off by complex characters in a unique world with touches of revenge, romance, and backstory to keep it enthralling. I highly recommend this story. I’ve already bought, book five, Crown of Dragons, by Rice and will post a review shortly.
