About the Book
Sorcerer
Christaan De Rein's return to Liverpool does not go well, starting with the
fact that his trusted apprentice, Higgins, dies on the way. Then again, Higgins
dies a lot. Of course, Rein doesn't expect to be welcomed with open arms after
being banished for nine years, but a cryptic summons from The Musician herself
cannot go unanswered.
But when Rein arrives all is in chaos. People with fairy blood are turning up
dead. The Forum Magicae is undone and the Curators sieged.
And in another world altogether, where Earth is just a legend, a girl named
Niena and a cursed lyre hold the key to saving both realms. Or destroying them.
Praise for the Book
★★★★ "Reeves writes with both the
mechanical acuity of Shakespeare and the warm, wry wit of Terry
Pratchett...This is an exquisitely written start to a new fantasy series that
demonstrates the dangers of an irresistible distraction."- Red City
Review
★★★★"A
cleverly plotted fantasy adventure, thoughtfully written.' The Wishing Shelf
Book Awards"- The Wishing Shelf
★★★ 1/2"...vivid
and immersive, directly drawing the reader into the world and letting us feel
the danger of a ship in stormy waters or the difficulty of finding a path
through the chaos of a London crowd.”- IndieReader
My Review
THE MELODY OF THREE is a "steampunk" story with fantastical elements, at least that's what I'm calling it. Sincerely speaking, I needed to go through many chapters before I became engrossed in the characters and storyline of the narrative. Although I'm not a fan of Terry Pratchett, I did notice a Terry Pratchett aura, which would appeal to them. Still, THE MELODY OF THREE was a good book all around. S.D. Reeves, the author, has a natural gift for world-building and providing intricate descriptions. Sorcerer Christaan De Rein, the protagonist, is a fascinating character who I'm sure would appeal to fantasy readers.
There are narrative problems in THE MELODY OF THREE, but if you examine it too carefully, you can find faults in any work. However, none of these shortcomings detracted from how much I enjoyed reading the book.
Overall, THE MELODY OF THREE is an imaginative fantasy tale that will appeal to a wide spectrum of readers. ╌★★★★✰
