This review is from: The Realm: the Awakening Begins (Paperback)

The Realm: The Awakening Begins is one heckofa rollercoaster ride! Suspense, fear, joy, love, peace, hopelessness and hope all wrapped up in one book with great, believeable characters. Glanville certainly has the ability to make you feel you are truly "there".

As a homeschooler, this is a book I will share with students in our local Co-op. The hope it brings while wrapped around such a great story will encourage many a reader, no matter what age. I have read it, (I'm 44), my son is reading it, (he's 15) and any age will be touched by the honesty portrayed by Glanville's characters.

Get this book! And read it to your kids!

This review is from: The Realm: the Awakening Begins (Paperback)

A great story filled with spirits, magic, and a battle between the forces of good and evil. It adds the depth of meaning behind the story that I wished the Harry Potter series had, something like JR Tolkein or CS Lewis. Great for youth or adults. Looking forward to the rest of the series!
