Synopsis: "For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul?

For the mature fans of Harry Potter, A Game of Thrones, Lord of the Rings, Elder Scrolls, Legend of Zelda, Guild Wars, World of Warcraft, Fable, and Dragon Age, The Tale of Onora follows the journey of a young orphan after his village is destroyed and he is forced to grow up in a dangerous world. As he navigates through different walks of life, he begins to uncover a conspiracy as to why his village was destroyed. Before he can put the pieces together, his fate is sealed by a terrible war. In the storm of chaos that follows, his actions turn him into a legendary hero.The more renowned he gets, the closer the source of evil is drawn to him. The more he fights for the truth, the more of an outlaw he becomes.

In Book One, a boy at the brink of adulthood travels beyond the ruins of an ancient elven city, to The Crown of The World in the far north. It is there where he meets his father for the first time, in search of the answers and reasons his mother refuses to discuss. At the risk of his life, he learns that finding the truth requires knowing The Tale of Onora."

Tales of the Onora is a very quick read but it is also a very heavy read as there is a lot going on within its pages. The story focuses on the life of a young boy who finally meets his father, a man of great power and a lot of history. As he learns about his estranged father he also learns about the things his mother refuses to tell him. He also learns about who he is and what he could become.

Tale of the Onora is a great start to a series but there are some issues. For one the quick changes in point of view are a bit jarring and it takes a few times before you get use to it. While I wouldn't say they are abrupt, they are jarring a little. however, that is the only real complaint I have as the story is quite solid and entertaining.

If you are looking for a quick read that looks to be a promising series, look no further.

Overall 6/10
