The Servant of Death, the Dark Lord Sevron has arisen once more. This time he has taken form in the Holy Tree of the Elves, their sacred Graelic. Power, wealth, immortality . . . such things are meaningless to him, for the Servant of Death desires but one thing – to turn the universe into a living hell. Even the power of the Maker failed to see him dead. There is but one man who can stand against him . . . but will there be anything left of the universe when their battle is done?
J.C. Bell began writing at a young age. His first short story, Peter and Poon, was a disgusting, offensive, pornographic piece of filth. Unfortunately, his English teacher had no knowledge of its content and read it (thankfully, only the first paragraph) in front of J.C. Bell’s sixth grade English class. Peter and Poon gained immediate attention from the Middle School Principle, various faculty members, and of course, J.C. Bell’s parents. Despite J.C.’s growing popularity among his fellow students, Peter and Poon was a disaster. Remarkably, J.C. Bell’s English teacher managed to set his anger and humiliation aside. And through the ordeal, he somehow taught J.C. to respect reading and writing. After finishing the first two books of his required after school reading, that respect became love. Hundreds of novels later, and that love continues to grow. Some would even argue that, since Peter and Poon, J.C. Bell's writing has somewhat improved.
Book three of The Limits series. A war begins, and the heroes must unite or the Void will reclaim everything!
Limits @ Infinity kept me interested until the end. The story was beautifully written, with a consistent style and tone, and efficiency of description that didn't slow the pace. It was original, and well written. An excellent addition to the genre.
There were scenes and lines that made me sit there and cry. Or laugh. Or cheer. The characters drove the plot to a satisfying conclusion, and resolved every issue.
The characters were so real and memorable that they could step outside the pages and be in the room with you. I cared what happened to them as if they were my own friends and family.
Limits @ Infinity kept me spell bound, and I was compelled to keep reading. Each scene flowed smoothly from one to the next. It also provided a gripping glimpse of how the characters lived in this well-developed world, and the action was heart-pounding and effortless to visualize.
I am blown away by the author’s ability to write such engaging, real-life, entertaining, phenomenal scenes. The writing style was consistent and used precise words so that exposition didn't slow the pace. There were no typographical and grammar errors that I remember, and the cover design and page layout were beautiful.

*****My Thoughts*****
For being a 33 page short story Bell packs a lot into a small amount of space. The concept is interesting but there is a LOT of work thats needs done to make this a bearable read. The story progesses in massive jumps without anything to bring it to that point. It was as if the author got stuck and just went on to the next section that happened to take off. Really interesting concept. It's just a shame that it's presented in such a lacklustre manner.
