The Blacksmith's Son (1) (Mageborn) - Softcover

Críticas

"The Blacksmith’s Son" is an invitation to an enchanting world of intrigue, loyalty, loss, and discovery. It’s an endearing tale worthy of any epic fantasy lover."

~Kel Kade, Author of the King’s Dark Tidings Series

“Manning delivers a tale that pushes the boundaries of magical fantasy, humanity, and the will of the gods.”

~KJ Colt, Author of the Healers of Meligna Series

“If you're looking for a well-woven story with interesting magic, you can't go wrong with the Mageborn series. Michael G. Manning's sense of pacing is impeccable, and it's easy (sometimes too easy) to lose yourself in the world he's created. He's a natural storyteller particularly talented at creating fun, relatable characters.”

~K.C. May, Author of the Kinshield Saga

“He seems to understand what makes good fantasy - a delicate balance between world-building, complete with history and cultures, without losing sight of the characters that inhabit it. Manning sweeps the reader from one scene to the next with tight chapters, efficient descriptions, flowing action, and likable characters.”

~Brian Braden, Underground Book Reviews

"Michael G Manning has gone from strength to strength with each successive book.  His protagonist, Mordecai, and his cohorts, have all the characteristics that make them appear only too human, and they are all the more endearing for their imperfections.  I have wept.  I have also laughed out loud.  Mordecai's self-deprecation and ironic wit lifted the darkness just enough to lull me through to the next dark encounter.  This author's natural aptitude for creating humour from the strangest situations is a delight."

~Helen Paton, regarding The Final Redemption
