Reviews for Mongoliad (#1 Foreworld)

“This off-beat alternate history of Eurasia could be your new obsession.” —i09.com “This story is pure adventure, with much swordplay and swashbuckling.” —Kirkus Reviews “A terrifically engaging book that pulled me along at least as quickly as The Hunger Games. Think Lord of the Rings without all that pesky fantasy…Five frighteningly accurate historical sword fights out of five.” —Fanboy Comics “While there might be some truth to the saying “too many cooks spoil the broth”, it doesn’t apply to The Mongoliad: Book One. In fact it’s a distinct advantage in a book where we see the world through the eyes of such a diverse group of people. Differences in voice make each character a distinct individual while not detracting from the story’s coherency or cohesion. The overall narrative actually flows far more smoothly than usual for a book covering as much ground as this one, as events build upon themselves naturally and logically. While there’s no indication as to who wrote which parts it ends up being irrelevant. After the first few pages you’ll find yourself so wrapped up in the story you’ll no longer care who the author is, you’ll just want to turn the page to find out what happens next.” —Blogcritics
