It will keep you entertained for hours, and will satisfy all ages. Recommended for the permanent library of all fantasy readers.” --Books and Movie Reviews, Roberto Mattos This bundle includes books #7, #8 and #9 (A RITE OF SWORDS, A GRANT OF ARMS and A SKY OF SPELLS) in Morgan Rice’s #1 Bestselling fantasy series THE SORCERER’S RING. These three bestselling novels are all here in one convenient file and offer a great step deeper into the world of the SORCERER’S RING series. Over 200,000 words of reading, all for an incredible price! It makes the perfect gift! THE SORCERER’S RING series tells the epic tale of the coming of age of Thorgrin, a special 14 year old boy, the least loved of his father, as he strives to become a warrior in the magical Kingdom of the Ring, as he learns he has powers and a destiny he does not understand. An outsider, he must fight for acceptance as he strives to join the King’s elite Legion, and as he falls in love with the king’s 16 year old daughter. Most of all, he must learn who he really is, why his destiny is so important, and why the fate of the Ring depends on him. In Books #7, #8 and #9, the saga deepends. In A RITE OF SWORDS (Book #7 in the Sorcerer's Ring), Thor grapples with his legacy, battling to come to terms with who his father is, whether to reveal his secret, and what action he must take. In a final, shocking twist, Thor learns that while his powers are supreme, he also has a hidden weakness—one that may just bring his final downfall. Will Thor and the others liberate the Ring and defeat Andronicus? Will Gwendolyn become the queen they all need her to be? What will become of the Destiny Sword, of Erec, Kendrick, Reece and Godfrey? And what is the secret that Alistair is hiding? In A GRANT OF ARMS (Book #8 in the Sorcerer’s Ring), Thor is caught between titanic forces of good and evil, as Andronicus and Rafi use all of their dark sorcery to attempt to crush Thor’s identity and take control of his very soul. Gwendolyn, with Alistair, Steffen and Aberthol, ventures deep into the Netherworld, on her quest to find Argon and free him from his magical trap. Reece leads the Legion members as they embark on a near-impossible quest to do what has never been done to descend into the depths of the Canyon and find and retrieve the lost Sword. Will the Ring fall into complete and final destruction? In A SKY OF SPELLS (Book #9 in the Sorcerer's Ring), Thorgrin finally returns to himself and must confront his father once and for all. An epic battle occurs, as two titans face each other, and as Rafi uses his power to summon an army of undead. As the new Queen of the Ring, Gwendolyn uses her powers to unite both MacGils and McClouds and King’s Court slowly comes back to life once again. Thor finds himself summoned to embark on his greatest quest of to seek out his mysterious mother in a faraway land and to find out who he really is. With multiple wedding preparations in the air, with Spring returning, King’s Court rebuilding, festivals afoot, peace seems to settle back onto the Ring. But danger lurks in the most unforeseen corners, and all of these characters greatest tribulations might be yet to come. With its sophisticated world-building and characterization, THE SORCERER’S RING is an epic tale of friends and lovers, of rivals and suitors, of knights and dragons, of intrigues and political machinations, of coming of age, of broken hearts, of deception, ambition and betrayal. It is a tale of honor and courage, of fate and destiny, of sorcery.

I enjoyed these stories despite the poor grammar, spelling and other errors...have they been edited at all?

However, the series is an engaging fantasy, filled with action, adventure, magic and mysticism. It is imaginative and has all the ingredients for this genre, not forgetting the heroes and villains.

Thor's story is the most intriguing and mysterious; though many of the characters don't seem to develop much.

There is a debate about the author, but I sense a female has written the books because of the style and tone, though I could be wrong - does it matter? If a machine has produced them, it's not clever enough to spot the glaring mistakes.

Nevertheless, while I am enjoying the series, I will continue, but, please get an editor.

I read this book and had to get the other 16 in the series. I just could not put it down. Some days i read for 8 hours straight. What a great fantasy ride. So much is happening in these books but the author writes it so it is easy to follow, like several little stories happening in one book. The characters I found to visualize, like and or dislike quickly. Descriptions were intense and in depth enough to make me feel as I were there in the story as a character myself.

If you like action, romance, fantasy, magic, castles, knights, battles of good and evil and valor then you will love this series. There is gruesome killing but the author does not go into a deep description and make it gory. There is great love and romance but nothing even pg rated. Lots of fantasy but not to extravagant. It amazes me how creative this author is and I constantly wondered "what in the world will happen next?".

To me a perfect story, a perfect read, and i think it would make a great movie! Reminded me a bit of the "Lord of the Rings. I would highly recommend this series and this author to anyone that even considers these mixed genres.

I hate this series, and I really wanted it to be good I read through to book 12! hoping that it would improve, but I can't read anymore of it, its like the author wants to torture his readers, I feel like the author dragged the story on long past when he should have ended it, and the constant rollercoaster of everything going well to the bad guys are winning and everything is going horrible and back again is so frustrating and irritating. Plus I don't like the parts where some of the characters get raped, this really bothers me. through this whole series so far, I've been annoyed at the lack of justice for the people suffering and by the whole thing where the bad things happening to them is being blamed on fate its like their saying, "oh its fate, its just how it is live with it." I can't believe I read this far into the series, but I can't read another book!

A Sky of Spells

As the war with the empire concludes it is now time to rebuild and reconstruct the ring. But not everything is peaceful. Conflicts start to form from the McClouds who are dissatisfied with the Union with the McGils. The rule of the Upper Isles is not a smooth transition as Gwen has hopped.

I feel that the chapters up through chapter 8 should have been in the previous book to give it a conclusion, but that would have made this book very short.

[Lou Freiberger · Rating 4 out of 5]

Enjoyable reading. The characters are more developed and the plot twists were interesting.

Enjoyable books and story lines. Will continue the series to continue with the story. I can just enjoy reading and not think too much. Good escape

[cathy · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good fantasy books

I would recommend these books for anyone that just needs to get involved in a series that takes you away for a little while. These books are good light reading. Spelling at times needs help especially as the series gets further along.

This series is just getting better and better.

[kathleen liberty · Rating 5 out of 5]

It was good

The ring

This is a easy book to get lost in. The Characters are perfect and the more you get to know them the more you find yourself rooting for them.

[Miss Linda C Shanks · Rating 4 out of 5]

Fast moving storyline

Struggle follows struggle in the battle of good vs evil. Suitable for teenagers+. Storyline keeps you absorbed. Keeps you reading

Enjoyable read

[Banobo · Rating 2 out of 5]

I think I will pause reading for now

I remember writing papers in HS and college - always rushed up against a deadline. I would do the research and have a good sketch of an outline. But, I would turn in what was my draft, not taking the time to correct spelling mistakes, problems with syntax, and not expounding when clarification was needed. Always a good first attempt ,but they didn't live up to expectations. That's the problem I see here, the author has a great FIRST DRAFT but the books need more work! I hope the author will pause and rework these books after additional editing and then proceed to the conclusion of the series that will live up to the promise of an epic.

[Gail · Rating 4 out of 5]

Lots of war and thankfully the main characters survive. Alistair is a druid and helps Gwendolyn. Alistair and Thor have a special relationship. The McGills win the war, but at what cost? The last book leaves you wondering about the prophecies of Thor and Gwen dying and the strength of their child. It also makes you wonder if the next war will come from the McGill family in the upper Isles, Mccloud people, or Romulus. It feels like a huge clash is coming and Argon's words to Gwen don't help relieve any of the worry that a lot of bad things are coming their way.

[Nick · Rating 1 out of 5]

I tried finishing the series but in the end I couldn't anymore. the author has much to learn about writing and maybe even killing a few of his main characters.

Every time they are in a bind, he jumps to a different character only to come back later in another chapter and the one going to die suddenly knows moves to save him/herself.

It's a shame, the series started out great but that's about it.

[Bob Cullen · Rating 4 out of 5]

Thoroughly enjoyable read but now getting repetitive and predictable. 17 books at £3/4 a book is also getting rather expensive especially when each book is only about 200 pages. Even the 3 book bundles (671 pages in total) at £10 a shot are a lot to pay for fairly short stories. Bit of a rip off really and it could/should be split into 3 good books like Lord of the Rings or something. I'd love to finish the series but I'm not forking out another £30/£40 sorry.

[Tim Lumsden · Rating 5 out of 5]

5 STARS!!!!! Still loving this series!

This book/ series has it all; epic battles, court intrigue, evil enemies, honorable knights, noble and villainous rulers, magic, dragons and romance. The adventures of Thor and Gwendolyn continues. The ring is constantly in danger and victory and peace often fleeting. Starting the next book of the series. HAPPY READING!!!!!

Great stories, needs good editor

incredible stories, great characters, fast moving, but needs a good editor. The mistakes the editor should catch don't detract from this great series.

[Willi · Rating 5 out of 5]

So wonderful to be immersed in a fantastic saga!!!Since Game of Thrones have I not been so inspired to read and read and read!!!

[Laurie Pringle · Rating 3 out of 5]

I feel that these books are past their prime. It's time for Morgan to end the story.

[Paul Rheinheimer · Rating 5 out of 5]

Terrific

It keeps getting better. I hope it keeps me going for th test of the cold winter. I will be a fan of Morgan's forever.

[Ryan E Hall · Rating 1 out of 5]

Finally gave up. This just kept getting more ridiculous the farther you got.

[Flo Tinsman · Rating 4 out of 5]

Must keep reading!!!

I have truly enjoyed reading this series of books, as they have a wonderful, yet quirky way of weaving each character into the next. On to the next on!!!

[Richard Myers · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wonderful

More hair raising action within the Ring and more action involving the main characters with the introduction of two nonhuman characters.

[Carmen Morales · Rating 5 out of 5]

GreAt story

Love it I highly recommend it for the young or adult. Would love to see more and more. I can't get enough

[Gail · Rating 3 out of 5]

I enjoyed the first two books but the third seemed to have lost its way. Not sure I can be bothered reading the remaining 8 books. There are also odd grammatical errors that crop up now & then.

[David Francis · Rating 4 out of 5]

Some of this rating was because I didn’t like something that happened and the rest was my own fault. I won’t elaborate on my fault. Lol! On to book 10.

[sherry brewer · Rating 3 out of 5]
