'5 stars. Hunters' Quest is a fantasy lover's delight'

'The Elf Queen' by Mei-Ling, age 15
Fantastic Fantasy, January 29, 2015 By Lorna Francis - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hunters' Quest (Hunters of Reloria trilogy Book 2) (Kindle Edition)

This action packed second novel  in the Hunters of Reloria series is a Fantasy  lovers delight.  The development of  the characters and the introduction of new magical and fantastic creatures and characters is intriguing and delightful.

We find out more about the struggles and quarrels which have led to fighting and hatred  between the knights and mountain men of Reloria.  We see the sadness and loss that is a result of this in the Hunters Quest.  How can they put this aside and join together to save their beautiful  Elven Jewel and their home land by fighting the Vergai together?
I loved reading of the The  Elven Jewel Princess,  Shari-Rose, who whilst being mistreated by her hateful captors now has hope and the support of the skilful huntress who has been installed and is in hiding close by.  
The strength of character shown by the halflings in particular is inspiring.  Kasper Beaumont has succeeded in developing her characters and grasping the readers attention whilst taking you by surprise with a fantastic  ending that leaves you wanting more.
 

Thanks Lorna for the great review.

 '5 stars: Hunters' Quest is full of adventure and intrigue.'  New review by Sweetheart reviews

 Reloria is under siege by the Vergai. Randir. and Fendi and their bond fairies are  on a mission to bring back the jewel and save Reloria. They have help from men. dwarves and a elf. They brave so many different trials as they fight to bring back the jewel to get the force field working again. 

To throw a big twist into their plans the princess has been kidnapped by an alien Cyclops with a very mean ass lizard thing that does their bidding. So what is a poor hafling to do so with the help of new characters that we meet in the book . We go on an epic adventure to save the princess and get the jewel and save the world

You know how sometimes the second book in a series is kind a weak. this book isn’t.  It is full of adventure and intrigue. You see how they work together to help each other out. There is also a little bit of romance coming along for the ride. The new characters were a great add on . They worked well together. Kasper can sure weave a tale of fantasy that can suck you in from the first page.

I was up reading well into the night. I had to know what was going to happen next. I had to see if the jewel would be recovered and if they were going to get the princess back. But alas Kasper left me wanting more with a cliff hanger at the end of this book.  I honestly went noooooooo way he can’t do this to me . I got really caught up in the lives of as I call them, my little halflings. I honestly felt like they were mine. LOL . 

Yes I am such a fantasy geek. I am admitting it to everyone right now. I am thinking that kids as young as 12 and people as old as 80 will enjoy the second book in the elven jewel series. Trust me you will get swept up in the fantasy and read all night long . 

So if you enjoy fantasy books check out Kasper Beaumont’s ELVEN JEWEL SERIES . I don’t think you will be disappointed at all
5 out of 5 stars

Here's something to read while you're waiting for the results of the art competition.
   Review by Andrew Baker

Fantasy lovers and dreamers: We know the feeling of plodding through weak second books in a series. We live in a world where, at their best, a fantasy series can be only almost as good as the first. The idea may have been great to begin with, but its continuation often suffers from a lack of ideas or drowns in a subtle, anticlimactic wave. With that in mind, I started book two of the Hunters of Reloria series by Kasper Beaumont. Thankfully, I can say Elven Jewel: Hunters' Quest, launched 10-19-2013, gave me no such feeling.


For those of you who didn't catch my review of Elven Jewel, I gave a very middle-ground 3-star review. I can honestly say I enjoyed the book, but I couldn't overlook some of the issues I had while reading. Over time, the first installation planted itself on me though, piqueing my interest in the second book, which came out recently. It was nothing to pick it up, because, like I said, I really did enjoy the first. What I got and what I expected are two totally different things.

Hunters' Quest, the second book in Kasper Beaumont's Elven Jewel series, expeditiously jumped into action. If you read along with me, you know the hunters of Reloria are on a quest to save the Elven Jewel. Of course, this quest goes hand in hand with constant battling, obstacles, and tension between the various characters. You should be familiar with the collection of common high fantasy races of people and should also know the first book ends beyond some epic battle, but the quest is nowhere near complete.

What you don't know is that Hunters' Quest switches gears entirely in the next installation. Suddenly, the fantasy world you learn in the first book collides with a mythological fantasy in the second. Obviously, I can't ruin the story for any readers, but I will say there are appearances of certain types of people that I would expect in a slightly different genre. Perhaps it wouldn't matter to everyone, but for those of you who commonly read my reviews, you know I love a good genre mash.

Beyond the surprises, though, I was fascinated by the story itself. Our little halflings, through battle and hardship, have become men. There have been treaties made between unlikely people, and there have been instances that may or may not break these lightly threaded alliances. Whether allies or enemies, all the different people must come together to save Reloria. Either way, victory seems unlikely against this newly realized foe.

There was no rut in this story, and the book was a fast read. I'm not certain if fast was either bad or good. I will say that I think it caused a lacking in some detailed description I look for in a read, but it also quickened the pace into the next action sequence. The battle action was great fun, and the story is getting even better. I would definitely recommend this book as a gift to 10- to 13-year-olds. It's a fantastic story, and it will definitely hold th
eir attention.

Fine artist John Sparks has painted this great portrait of Asher and the dragon in oils.  I like the way he has done the orange planet, Zanarah, in the background.  Well done to John and best of luck in the competition.The competition ends in a couple of hours.  Thanks to everyone who has entered.

Just when I thought today couldn't get any more exciting, an artist has replaced one of her entries with a new water colour painting.  This is 'Daeron and Shari-Rose', the elven princess and her loyal guardian.  Well done Hecate and best of luck in the art competition.
The winners will be announced on Sunday.
