5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent start to the Three Lands Trilogy, March 10, 2010

This review is from: Palindor (Paperback)

The "Three Lands Trilogy" reminds me somewhat of "The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever" in that the main character is transported to an alternate world, but where Donaldson's fantasy goes on and on, Mr Evans gives us a more concise journey. The characters are tested and their values are shown. I have read a lot of fantasy series and highly recommend this one. A lot of fantasy book series are battles of good and evil and this is no exception but these characters have a human quality that reflects how people face trials and overcome them.

This review is from: Palindor (Paperback)

It was one of the best books I ever read. I'm more of Star Wars nerd so I don't really read books like normally. So this was a great experience for me.

This review is from: Palindor (Chronicles of the Three Lands, Book 1) (Paperback)

... The second book is in print now, and the third is coming soon...
Palindor was a great story that I wish I owned. It takes the ideas behind Lord of the Rings and The Chronicles of Narnia and introduces new ideas, while expanding upon those by previous authors. Fantasy books are good for capturing peoples imaginations, and Palindor does just that. Congrats on a wonderful book, Mr. Evans. I enjoyed it. I'll definitely be buying this book...
