One of the best fantasy stories I have read

One of the best fantasy stories that I have read that included mythology. It was the best of both worlds. I loved the flow of the story and how the characters went really well together. I liked when Alexio returns to his home city and was welcomed back with open arms. I liked how it reminds me that if something is threatening what we love we must do what we can to protect it. The descriptions were great. The mythology blends really well. You don’t know that its coming and then boom its there bring a jazzy new side to a world of magic and greek gods. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves Greek mythology and magic.

Great fantasy world filled with discovery and action!

Wilbur Arron treats us to a world of magic and discovery in The Forest of Allund! Returning home, mage Alexio becomes the caretaker of a magical wood. He learns much from the creatures and interesting characters there, but when an invading army threatens to destroy that which he loves, Alexio must turn that which he learned into battlecraft. I love the sense of discovery Arron has instilled in his world! It was exciting to see what Alexio would encounter and learn next. It made me care about the world, which upped the stakes as war came to threaten it. If you’re looking for an immersive fantasy experience, then take a trip into the perilous Forest of Allund!
