On wow, this book is just made for audio books and maybe even a television series. I loved the book but you definitely need to read the first book to under stand what is going on, although there is a glossary at the end of the book so you can brush up on the different words and meanings. Like the first book, this book is packed full of action adventure, heartache and romance, spies and betrayal everything you could want from a great plot. The characters are great and I like the introduction of a few new ones. I love the fact the ladies of power are the most powerfulest people on the battlefield and with there ability and connection to there auotems (like a witches familiar) they add a different and exciting level to the battlefield. But it Solomon Roth's skill and determination to reunite the kingdoms that really works for me and it show that he knows his people and the author really knows and cares about his characters and that leads you to do the same. I can't wait to find out what the author has in store for them next.
Solomon Roth knows the Nevaens have never been so close to taking down the Circle of Afzah and hopefully there servant the black witch but in order to do so he will have to reunite the differing kingdoms once and for all. But he has his work cut out for him with spies, traitors and not to mention the people the black witch controls by magic, he will have a job working out who he can trust and not even the ladies of power or his beloved Enaid will be able to help him with that, as there's is a dark force working behind the scenes. Both sides are forming an army to destroy the other side but who will come out on top and at what cost?
Definitely will be getting this series in audio book when it comes out.
I was given this free review copy book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

“He wanted to be one of them. He did not want to shape the people of Nevaeh to his old ideals, he did not want to shape their world to his old morality and ideals, nor did he want to influence their growth and their lives by introducing too much of the past into their present; but, he was slowly realizing he had no choice.”
Of course this installment is just as epic as part 1 was and lends more insight into Roth himself. The above quote I pulled from the book well summarizes some of the challenges he faced in returning to Earth and also tells so much about Neveah.
This book really drives home exactly why Roth truly is a ‘lord of war’, rendering all he accomplishes in all of the Neveah chronicles completely plausible and the character development is some of the greatest work I’ve ever seen.
There’s no ‘just one more chapter’ with this novel; it’s masterfully done in a way that as everything comes to a head for one group, it then cuts to the other before showing how it plays out. This book is best devoured; settle into a comfy spot and bring snacks.
“There are times in every leader’s life when one must weigh the values of one action against the other.”
While being completely epic, addictive, exciting and a bit terrifying because of extreme plausibility, this book also drops lots of wisdom. I absolutely recommend both parts of “The Journals of Solomon Roth” to readers of ALL genres.
“You cannot correct the mistakes of the past if you attempt to do the same thing in a different way.”
This a read that will never leave me, and one that I’ll revisit often, and crave in between visits.
5 stars. ALL the stars.
