A classically-styled saga fantasy filled with the traditional vast setting of barren landscapes, elements of war, and many characters introduced across a series of small events, the trilogy is written as a seamless story from start to end.This is the first part of the Bloodthorn Trilogy, reminiscent of a massive Norse-style story, the kind that influenced Tolkien, with many POVs and parts coming together in later installations.Lovers of sword battle quests will enjoy this book as an introduction to Collins' world, a book which basically serves as a set up for the rest of the tale, which is continued in the next book in the series, Blood and Fire."Cate Baum, Self-Publishing ReviewBloodthorn Series OBSIDIAN. You can now get the first three books in the series in one easy to read edition. OBSIDIAN is available from Amazon Kindle for $2.99.Midwest Book Review for Bloodthorn Series OBSIDIAN.
"This compilation isn't presented as three books with starting and stopping points, but as a smooth, epic saga that comes to life the further readers enter into the plot.Seemingly disparate threads and characters interact and contribute to a greater strength, the story line becomes compelling and hard to put down, and all that early attention to detail pays off as events become a series of life-changing encounters for Megan, Brinn, and others who face an evolving and impossible-to-win war.It should be mentioned that there's a fourth book, and that Bloodthorn Series, OBSIDIAN ends in a cliff-hanger; but by now fantasy readers will be thoroughly versed in its setting and characters and will look forward to finding out what happens to the captive princess and all whose lives circle her."Diane Donovan, Midwest Book Review"It was a wonderful read, and I was happy to recommend it!"
