Fantasia Reviews 2017 Book of the Year

Haunted by his past. Hunted in the present. Tossed like an arrow in the wind.

Athson discovered the unexpected during the search for The Bow of Hart. Yet the prophesied weapon remains hidden.

Mysteries discovered during the quest draw him deeper into the peril. The flames of vengeance surge in his thoughts with new revelations.

Can he escape the traps of his enemies?

The dragon's reach endangers even Athson's companions in unexpected ways. His enemy wants the bow but his mentor claims it must be used according to prophesy. With each turn of the search for the bow, long-hidden secrets surface and Athson must find the bow or risk losing those dear to him.

When the dragon gains leverage over him, Athson is torn between destiny and desire.

But Athson seeks his own path.

Will he falter like an arrow against the wind?

The hero of this award-winning edition of “an entertaining fantasy series in the classic quest adventure mold” defies a merciless wizard and a sly dragon. But Athson’s on the hunt for more than destiny. His aim is tested between doom and vengeance.

Grab a piece of destiny now.

If you like epic fantasy, then you'll love An Arrow Against the Wind because the adventure spins like an arrow in flight.

This is BOOK TWO of The Bow of Hart Saga. The other two books have been released:
BOOK ONE: The Bow of Destiny
BOOK THREE: The White Arrow

Reactions to An Arrow Against the Wind::
Awards: Fantasia Reviews 2017 Book of the Year
Reviews:
An Arrow Against the Wind stands out in the crowd. It is imaginative, yet familiar.... There is a care and quality to his work, a subtlety, in which he takes the things that we know and love and gives them back to us through his own imaginative lens. If the Bow of Destiny was a fresh take on a classic tale, An Arrow Against the Wind seeks to refine it all further still. Here, Mister Solomon has grown bolder, but wiser. Fantasia Reviews Announcement post We have read more than a couple great books this year, and An Arrow Against the Wind is surely among them. - ★★★★★ Fantasia Reviews

You will not be disappointed reading this series. - ★★★★★

Books most like: The Sword of Shannara, Lord of the Rings and other classic, epic fantasy.

Easy to share summary: In this epic ranger fantasy, a quest for the fabled Bow of Hart drags reluctant hero, Athson, into danger between a shapeshifting dragon and a deadly wizard. Hunted by trolls serving his enemies while plagued by disorienting hallucinations, Athson battles danger and himself. But his destiny might kill him before he completes the quest when he finds an item that threatens to destroy his grasp on reality.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Nominated 2017 Fantasia Reviews Book of the Year: "It is familiar, yet new. Somehow, it is both safe and daring. This is Mister Solomon's gift, the gift of subtlety. When we first read the Bow of Destiny over a year ago, we were stunned. Stunned by the simple eloquence of his story, the power of his prose, and his fearless presentation." (fantasiareviews.com/2017/12/21/book-of-the-year-2017-nominees/)"We have read more than a couple great books this year, and An Arrow Against the Wind is surely among them. Mister Solomon's solid and deliberate pacing, deep characters, and love of fantasy push this novel forward, beyond what it so easily could have been..., making it something worth reading. In short, we loved it. If you love good fantasy and good characters, they you will like it too." Fantasia Reviews (fantasiareviews.com/2017/08/25/fantasia-reviews-arrow-wind/)

"....near non-stop action, An Arrow Against the Wind is a more complex book, which delves deeper into the emotions of our main characters (heroes and villains), reveals back stories, unveils motives, and plunges our heroes into the gloom and doom of their circumstances, as the dangers come at them from unexpected places. Definitely an entertaining fantasy series in the classic quest adventure mold!" Bookwraiths

" Highly recommended!" Author, Mae Clair

I’ve always been a fantasy geek. Books by authors like Tolkien, McCaffrey, McKillip and more stoked my imagination on frosty winter nights as much as the fireplace warmed my limbs. Now I love writing my own fantasy tales. My imagination merges with my sense of everyday courage as I tell stories about characters challenged by life as they discover they matter. My background in anthropology mingles with my fantasy settings as my characters seek truth beyond their quests and adventures. Join me on the fantasy path and let’s share a book at the fire.

This is a very well written story with a plot that keeps you reading. Enough action for any science fiction enthusiast! If you are new to science fiction, this is a great starter series for anyone.

I like how the author keeps my interest. The story flows well. There’s a lot of adventure and excitement in this book. I can’t wait to start book three in this series.

I should’ve started with the first book, however, I didn’t. I recommend starting with the first book. It’s an enjoyable read. Magic is spread thickly through all the chapters. The end does leave you hanging.

I have many of this authors book, (series). Most of his books are a fast read, (do not want to put down)
So far the 2 books that I have read are very slow in spots.
Hopefully book 3 will be a faster read.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 29, 2017

At first, I loved it. The beginning of the story had so much danger, and I was working to remember the characters. Plus, Athson was injured and delirious. PHS can write a good unreliable narrator, whether seeing visions or being concussed.

Then it just got repetitious. The characters kept thinking the same thoughts over and over. Hastra contemplated her second death. Athson blamed himself for not saving his father. There were troll attacks, another blizzard, and the company would separate again.

Almost all the sentences started with a subject. Even more, they usually started with an article. Any prose sounds dull if sentence after sentence begins, "The..." or "A..." or "Athson...."

I started highlighting the words and sentences where I got confused. There's a lot of yellow in the second half of the book. Some prepositions are unclear, and other wording is just vague.

"Trolls came into view." From where? Did they burst out from behind rocks? Did they slink through the trees? Did they drop out of the sky? Other times the characters would refer to something I wouldn't catch. "That one night was all her fault." Huh? Even when I reread whole pages, I still didn't understand.

In books with a Creator, I don't mind some miracles. I like them, the sudden faith, strength, or hope. But three instances of literal deus ex machina? The characters could have gotten away! But, no, Eloch rescues 3 different sets of prisoners at the end. He leaves hardly anything for the characters to do. That was the climax? How anti-climatic.

Arrow against the Wind

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 3, 2021

This book was challenging to read because of the switch backs but I'm looking forward to the next part. I feel sad about the elf being taken over by the dragon. I wish there's a happier ending there. Its too bad about his dad , but that was predictable.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 9, 2017

I thought this was a great follow-up to “Bow of Destiny.” I really liked the dragon villain, and we get to learn more about his domain in this book. Also I loved the concept of ‘Spark’ and Ralda the giant. The first book had more of a ‘quest’ vibe, with a great ‘dungeon-crawling’ section at the end. This book felt more like the characters were constantly on-the-run. Either running to escape hunting enemies, or rushing to rescue someone before time runs out. Along the way, there are triumphs and tragedies, but overall the mood was bleak and anxious for most of the book. And that matched the setting, which were rugged and bitterly cold mountains. I guess a lot of ‘Book 2s’ in a series tend to be darker books, because it’s always ‘darkest before the dawn.’ So I hope in Book 3 will bring more happy times for Athson and his crew!
