The Dawning of Power is the debut trilogy in Brian Rathbone's fantasy series: The World of Godsland. Echoes of the ancients power are distant memories, tattered and faded by the passage of eons, but that is about to change. A new dawn has arrived. Latent abilities, harbored in mankind s deepest fibers, wait to be unleashed. Ancient evils awaken, and old fears ignite the fires of war. In times such as these, ordinary people have the power to save the world . . . or destroy it.

The Dawning of Power,
By School Nurse (New Jersey) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Dawning of Power (Paperback)
Brian has a gift for painting a vivid picture. You can feel beauty, sense evil, and find your blood running faster as tension builds. Great read.

Fun tribute,
This review is from: The Dawning of Power (Paperback)
Very much like Stanek's "Kingdoms and the Elves of the Reaches" which was first published in 2001/2002. Rathbone changes POV within chapters in the same way as Stanek, taking the reader rapidly into the shifting story of Catrin, Chase, and Nat as Stanek does for Adrina, Vilmos, and Seth. His GreatLand is akin to Great Kingdom, the similarities go on, but I've change my mind about my original opinion. Call of the Herald does a nice introduction to the story. Inherited Danger and Dragon Ore make it stronger. It ends in an okay place.

Vivid writing,
By Bonnie (Seattle) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Dawning of Power (Paperback)
Great series. The beginning to many more. I powered through all the books in The Dawning of Power and the first book in The Balance of Power (the second trilogy in the series). I really can't wait for the next book. I believe Brian Rathbone is a powerful writer and has a bright future in the literary world.
