Publisher's Summary
The future of the Ashaiian haven, the newly founded Kingdom of Cael, is anything but secured. Rezkin must seek recognition from the King of Gendishen if his people are to maintain possession of their island home and the enchanted secret it contains.
In an unexpected twist, events overtake Rezkin, and he is thrust into a frustrating adventure to seek a worthless prize. He finds that his carefully constructed reputation as an indomitable foe has consequences as others seek to use his strengths for their own gain. Meanwhile, friends are confronted with too many truths, power and strength might be more than some desire, loyalties and friendships are tested, and at least one of Rezkin’s friends might be headed for a miserable demise.

Everyone loves Mathias. Naturally, when he discovers it’s his destiny to save the world, he dives in headfirst, pulling his best friend, Aaslo, along for the ride. However, saving the world isn’t as easy, or exciting, as it sounds in the stories. The going gets rough, and folks start to believe their best chance for survival is to surrender to the forces of evil, which isn’t how the prophecy goes. At all. As the list of allies grows thin and the friends find themselves staring death in the face, they must decide how to become the heroes they were destined to be.

When it comes to action and adventure, every hero needs a good sidekick. Holmes has Watson, Batman has Robin, and Daniel has . . . Orrin. More like brothers than friends, they always have each other's backs. And as Daniel is the big, strong, handsome type, Orrin is more than happy to remain in his shadow at school, at parties, pretty much everywhere. Then things take a turn for the truly weird when a terrible accident catapults the pair into a world totally unlike their own, in which the rules of a role-playing game hold sway.

OK story, very drawn out.
Every time Frisha opens her mouth, makes we want to turn this off.
There has yet to be a more annoying character with absolutely no skill or use in the story other then to annoy you.
The main character start form book 1 has mysterious and powerful, now by book 4 he has become pitiful and weak. I know the author is keeping all the annoying character around just to show how the main character struggle to find humanity, but all it accomplish was to make me frustrated every time they talk.

Kept me interested
Overall, enjoying the series so far. I like the fact that he’s skilled at just about everything. The story is quite interesting, definitely an adventure. Some things are a little redundant, like how Rezkin is clueless about simple things. This series would have been so much better if Frisha was less irritating. She’s whiny and blah. Literally any other female character (with the exception of Sheila) would have been a better choice for his “love interest”. I’m still eager to see what happens in the next book! Lots of mysteries I want solved.

Solid Entry
So I still struggle with some of the female characters and the way they are written. That aside I do like the intricacies of the plot.
The story has been driving forward nicely, but the lead needs more setbacks or some failures.
It’s crazy during some of the scenes that no one ever shows the true horror of what was done to Rez as a child.
