Robert Newcomb is, as far as I know, a fairly new author. This is the first book of his that I've found.
The Fifth Sorceress,
Volume 1
of The Chronicles of Blood and Stone
Bantam Press.
From page 1, the book has had me gripped. The story spans 300 years, and is the usual good v's evil, but I'm guessing that thier 'good' and our 'good' may be debatable.
The characters jump out at you, coming to life from the second you meet them, and there's just enough descriptive writing to give you a clear picture, but not send you into a deep sleep.
I'm not yet even 100 pages into the book, and I find myself carrying the book around the house with me, reading every opertunity I get.
10/10 a must read.......
