Journey to the Fringe

I recently read a book called Journey to the Fringe by Kelli Swofford Nielsen, from Shadow Mountain Publishing.

It's the first in a series called "Stone Mage Wars" and it's a creative story about a time where magical men and women have special gifts to harness the power of the elements around them. As soon as I got into the story, I was really liking it! The story takes place in a time where the gifts of the stone mages are unknown by most people, so the characters in the book find themselves being trained to use this power they didn't know they had. Soon they are fighting for their home and their lives. It's a great adventure and the way it was written kept reminding me of what it's like to watch a movie- you watch (or in this case, read) as things unfold in front of you.

Journey to the Fringe is expected to be released on May 1st.

Disclosure: I received this book through Deseret Book, from Shadow Mountain Publishing, free of charge for review purposes. I was not compensated in any other way for this post and the thoughts I'm sharing are my own.
