OVERVIEW

(from Goodreads)

For the first time in over a thousand years the Seven Kingdoms of Justava are at peace with each other. As age old tensions melt away, the people are able to rest easily in their homes, safe in the knowledge that war will trouble them no longer. But a new power is growing in the heart of Justava, an unseen malice that threatens to destroy the fragile peace and throw Justava back into chaos and war. With the evil Necromancer Empire spreading to every corner of the Seven Kingdoms, it falls upon two young elves who lost everything to this new evil to make a stand. Together, Brenik and Nalia must overcome age old prejudices and travel deep into the wilds of Justava in order to raise their banner and ignite the fires of rebellion.

The idea of the Seven Kingdoms came to Harry whilst on holiday and at last he decided to pursue his passion and write his story down.

REVIEW

I read the e-book version of
THE SEVEN KINGDOMS: The Darkening Lands by Harry G. Sherwin. At first I wasn't really sure if I wanted to or not. This isn't my favorite kind of book. I thought, What the hey? Why not? I might like it. I'm glad I decided to read it. I got wrapped up in a world of Goblins, Werewolves, Elves, Vampires, Dragons. All these mythical creatures coming as one to ward of the evil magicians. We all love the books where good vs. evil. I'm was just not sure when I was reading it, who would win. Good or Evil? Evil is really a tough character and doesn't go down without a real fight. The Seven Kingdoms of Justava are at peace for the first time in thousands of years. Tension is gone and people finally feel safe. Inside of Justava their lurks an evil power that is waiting to send the peace and tranquility running. It's kind of amazing to me that it takes two elves to make a stand for what's right. Their names are Brenik and Nalia. They must overcome and spark the fires of rebellion. This is definitely good vs. evil. We always think of good as winning. Does it always.? I found the book quite interesting and very well detailed. I really liked that it was the two young elves who took up the stand against evil. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves fantasy and good vs. evil. So go pick up a copy and join Brenik and Nalia in their fight to put The Seven Kingdoms of Justava back to where peace and good reigns.

I received this e-book copy of THE SEVEN KINGDOMS: The Darkening Lands from the author Harry G. Sherwin for this unbiased review.

I would give this book 3 STARS.
