Book Review - Tools of Prophecy

About the Book
Book #2 of The Prophecies Series

The TOOLS OF PROPHECY is the second volume in an epic saga which describes a prophecy that has placed the Riverton brothers in the lead roles of a struggle to save their newfound world from being overrun by unspeakable horrors. This destiny requires that they face off with the demons that nearly destroyed their world over five centuries ago.

In the prior book, the Riverton family found themselves unceremoniously dumped in the world of Trimoria. A world whose population was under the yoke of a tyrant named Azazel, and in which anyone who exhibited wizard powers had met with disaster.

In this book, the Rivertons are charged with creating an Academy of Magic, recruiting qualified students, and furthering their own training with secrets that have long been held by the reclusive elves.

Despite their youth, a mysterious spirit has engaged them in a struggle to gain mastery of their newfound skills, help raise and train two armies, and stay alive long enough for their final showdown with destiny.

The only things that stand in their way are the assassins hired to destroy them and the Demon Lord's minion who holds a personal grudge and intends to witness the young boys' deaths.

My Take on the Book
I read the first book in this series and thoroughly enjoyed this so when I heard that the second book in the series was coming out I was excited to be able to review this as well. I have to say that the second book lived up to my expectation, and I was pleasantly surprised at how well the plot, characters and adventurous undertones of the book pushed the book along making you want to read more to see what will happen next. The author does an amazing job at holding you in suspense, and with the strong character development that he provides you get to learn more and more about the characters as the book progresses which makes you only cheer them on further! This was an exciting book that will keep you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end and I have to say that even though you might think this is only for young adults, you would be mistaken as people of all ages will enjoy this book!
