Rodrick is a prince of the ruling country of Diar. He has a face kissed by the Gods themselves, with deep blue eyes and long ruby-red hair. Speaking of Gods, he also happens to be the Acolyte of Time. Gifts and curses with this power give him control over aspects of time. And being a dragon-human hybrid has its amazing perks too.

But since childhood, Rodrick has had a target on his back, and his insanely power-hungry father, Demon King Ryton, comes across as his closest but worst enemy. Throw in the workings of an alcoholic mother, a bipolar sister, a recovering addict brother, and an adopted little sister with magical powers, and you have the royal family of Diar.

Things couldn't get any worse, until he meets the beautiful Princess Arcelia—but Arcelia isn't the main problem. Her and Rodrick are on now on the run from Rodrick's father, Ryton.

And with the looming risk of world destruction ahead of them, Rodrick is worried about more than college exams.

The setup of this fictional world is solid. I’m highly interested. It’s even more interesting because mix-breeding is possible. How awesome is that!

The pace of book one is slow. It’s mostly buildup with the action taking place in the last 20% of the story.

Book two has the opportunity to really soar now that the story was been laid out.

This is a lot of information. But it's magical so don't let that put you off. The character's have wonderful personalities. This book needs to have a second edition with tons of illustrations! I want to visit this world, for real.

An engaging exploration of time, space and first love

Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2020

Child of Tempus combines the familiar and the fantastic in a novel filled with gods, monsters, and human emotions. The setting is a world where a Demon King strives to create an existence to his liking. Standing against him is his son born to preserve the time-space continuum. Prince Rodrick, the acolyte of Time, is partnered in this quest with Princess Arcelia, The heir to the throne of Qirar can manipulate shadows along with matching wit with the prince. The story unfolds in a world filled with winged teenagers, warrior women, and cyborgs. The reader is encouraged to be enchanted by mythical creatures with scales, claws, and hair the colors of dreams. The realities of betrayal, addiction, and political unrest also play their parts in the novel. The story ends with the promise of a peace unfulfilled; however, it also provides the potential of a better adventure that is love.
Child of Tempus aims high with multiple narrators. However, just like too many cooks can spoil the meal, the inclusion of so many characters telling the story causes the work to drag. Lack of character development for the hero’s family stands out as wasted opportunities to increase interest in the action unfolding.
Overall, the novel was a pleasant excursion into a world filled with creations whose acts of bravery prevent the world from ceasing to exist but still seize the opportunity to appreciate the sentiment of a first kiss.

Great Ya Fantasy

Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2019

An inventive fantasy by a debut author, Winnifred Tataw The Gods' Scion: Child of Tempus.  Right from the beginning you are swept up into the books enjoyable plot and likable characters that will have you cheering them on. Tataw has Created an urban/contemporary fantasy that takes on a faced passed storyline.  Rodrick a ruling prince of the country of Diar, Being a Acolyte of his time, And dragon-human. But not everything is perfect, with turbulent family dynamics and a Demon King as your Father. Impending world destruction and magical realism with a dash of romance makes this an intriguing and engaging storyline. Great dialogue and magical elements makes for well written book.  If you enjoy Ya Contemporary Fantasy than this is the perfect book for you. I look forward to reading more books from this creative Author.

Okay can I just say, AMAZING. The details of the fictional world is crazy good. I really felt like I could picture all of the details perfectly (like a mini movie in my head). The characters themselves also have amazing details. Yes there is A LOT of information in this book, BUT I feel because of the information given, anything coming after this book is set already. Not only that there was suspense, something I enjoy in these magical type stories. Love love love LOVE! Can’t recommend enough!!

What would happen if gods had acolytes?

Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2020

The Child of Tempus is a promising start of the new series by Winnifred Tataw. The world she brings us into is an interesting blend of countries, who have different magical abilities and features. There is a moment when the pace in the book slows down, so I was tempted to put the book down, but I tell you to keep reading it until the end.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
