Couldn't out it down!
The world building and history he was able to make for each character and kingdom, land and race blew me away! His storytelling ability is amazing and I as soon I put down book three, book four was in my hands.

Incredible read!
If you like Knights, Magicians, Kings, castles, dragons and epic fights, then this book is for you! This is a very well written book that is a real page turner. But it yourself and see if you don't enjoy it as much as I have. Good reading!!

Plenty of action, magic, excitement. Unexpected changes, unexpected solutions, unexpected betrayals. It took me a while to get into the story and to get the picture in front of me but then when the story starts to run it's hard to close the books. Beautiful as you were taken into the world where different kingdoms are at war against each other and the twins Belwynn and Soren start their adventures

Toric's Dagger
Evil is trying to take over their world, and a relic from the past may be necessary to defeat the enemies. Unfortunately, Toric's Dagger has been stolen. Belwynn and Soren are twins, and they are leading a team that is determined to find the thieves and return the dagger. But there are many others who want the dagger, and would like to use it for personal gain.
Wow, great world building. The beginning of an epic fantasy with action, adventure, and magic. Well written and complex characters. Great book.
Bolivar's Sword
The epic quest continues as a group of adventurers search for legendary weapons that will help defeat the armies of a evil creature determined to rule the world.
Wow, a fantastic read with an action packed, magical adventure and a fascinating, well written cast of characters.
The Jalakh Bow
Wow, the epic adventure continues in this book of the series. The core group of heroes is separated and are continuing the search for the magical weapons. Unfortunately, the enemy is also looking for those weapons, and they will try to take those weapons from the searchers who have already claimed them.
I thought this was a fantastic book, it has magic, battling armies, and unexpected betrayals. Unique, and compelling characters fighting against and evil god, and sometimes their own people.

Weapon Takers Saga Complete . . .
The adventures begin with Toric's Dagger, just another religious relic, until it is stolen. Belwynn and her twin brother, Soren, volunteer to lead a team to get it back, surrounded by danger and treachery, relying on Soren's magical abilities and their shared telepathic bond. The reader is invited to join the epic quest to find the seven weapons of Madria before the forces of Ishari plunge all of Dalriya into darkness: ◆ Dagger ◆ Staff ◆ Sword ◆ Bow ◆ Shield ◆ Spear ◆ Cloak ◆
This box set contains all four novels:
💥 TORIC'S DAGGER
Soren, an ambitious wizard. His twin sister Belwynn, who can stir men's minds with her voice. Can they lead a motley crew of mercenaries, priests and rogues to retrieve a stolen relic?
💥 BOLIVAR'S SWORD
With their party broken, the responsibility to continue the quest falls on even fewer shoulders. Can Rabigar persuade the Krykkers who exiled him long ago to join his war?
💥 THE JALAKH BOW
The search gets even more dangerous as the weapon takers are drawn to the ends of Dalriya. A fallen Empire, the northern Steppe lands, and across the sea to a continent of mystery.
💥 THE GIANTS' SPEAR
As the Isharites crush every last place of resistance in Dalriya, time has run out. Can the heroes stand united? Can they take on a god...and win?
Plus! The brand new interquel short story, set seven years after the end of The Giants' Spear:
💥 THE SACRIFICE

I have read all 3 books in this box set and have reviewed each one separately however I could not miss the chance to say what a great series this has been so far, full of very good world building, great courageous characters who battle against evil and who are searching for the weapons which could win them the war! It is a great adventure, sword and sorcery epic fantasy read which just cannot be missed. I am desperately waiting for our next book in series!! For more info look up my individual books reviews!

Received as a Review copy, this is an honest review. This is one of the best epic fantasy series ( a fourth book will complete the series); I've read in long time. I liked the weapons that were so important to the story was very creative and complex. It's funny and serious with gripping battles and sweeping landscapes that immerse into a story you don't want to end. Highly recommended.

This author writes an excellent story with
a clear, logical plot-line, definitely-drawn
characters and a pleasingly creative world-view.
I have read this series so far and intend to read
it again while I wait for the next book to appear.
It's worth it.
Enjoy !!

This is the first 3 books in the series there are more so it does end on a cliff hanger that said! It's a great set of books well written and the characters are well developed I will be getting the rest of the series.

Unbelievable. The characters and the plot were just made for each other. Fascinating, grabbed me and never let go until the end. Can’t wait for more.

An Entertaining Fantasy Adventure
Well developed likable characters who are on a quest for success. Good writing with a story that is both hopeful and tragic.

Epic books with the great struggle between good and evil
I do very much enjoy books like this that have lots of characters that you get to know and storylines that involve the battle between good and evil. There's a war ongoing and many skirmishes that our heroes survive along the way. This includes a lot of travel between various countries and includes many different alien races and cultures in search of seven weapons imbued with God given energy. As at the end of the third book 4 had been recovered. I look forward to reading the fourth book.

Great story series!
This series grabbed me from the start and never let go! Incredible character development, world building, and story building throughout the entire series. The series contains many twists and turns and incidents you never see coming. Truly and epic series that delivers great content and not just a bunch of hype. I am looking forward to grabbing the next part of the series.

Could be More!
I could easily have graded this book a five if only there was not this silly matter of books supposedly being written for YOUNG ADULTS! Man, it's annoying when words are used that is so close to being entirely wrong, and all because YOUNG ADULTS think like that. SUPPOSEDLY. Please, write books with at least good grammar. Such a good story too, wasted, I think!!

Good story
I enjoyed the story so far though it is not complete at this point. However the editing needs to be redone as the names are mixed up in several places in these books. Makes you have to stop and re read to figure out the correct name. Now to find the next in series.

A good book ruined by missing pages
I would have given this book 4 if not 5 stars had I not gotten to the late 800 pages and find blank pages a lot from then on. Just whole sections missing and making the last 200 pages not readable very frustrating.

Superb knights and magic saga
Great profiling, excellent tales, good characters and engaging heros... Who can ask for more? I found it really refreshing, a good spell of constantly evolving adventure.

An entertaining epic fantasy trilogy which will tick all the boxes for fans of the genre - Action, adventure and magic. These books do have a "cast of thousands" though, as many fantasy novels do, but once you get into the story that is not problematic.

an interesting adventure that I enjoyed all away to the end. A series worth checking out.
