This is one of the best series I have ever read in my 40+ years of reading. Everything is here, suspense, mystery, fantasy, romance, family, coming of age, surprise, shock and awe. I found myself invested in the lives of the characters, rooting for some, loving some, hating others, definitely a roller coaster of emotions. I cried with them, laughed, celebrated and grieved.
I am anxiously awaiting the continuation of this series.
I am a lover of fantasy/sci-fi. This is a unique take in this genre. The character development is rich, enough detail provided about the physical surroundings that I could picture it in my head without needing to read pages upon pages describing the scenery.
Highly recommend!

I love reading this series.
What must go on in Leigh's mind is amazing! I have just read book 9 and can hardly wait until the next book. There has been so many changes in the lives of these characters in this book, I could hardly wait to turn the next page. I do not want to give anything away but if you have not read this series, you are missing out on a fantastic writer. It is real. You get to know the characters like they are real people. I so enjoyed the interview at the end.

Lovely and Interesting
What can I say, except this book out does the last one and I cannot wait for the next one.
The interview with the characters at the end of this book was hilarious. You should read this book just for those interviews.
I wonder how book ten is going to turn out. I am on the edge of my seat for series 2 for I can’t wait for either one of them and I feel like a kid at Christmas.
Wonderful series.

5 Stars
Book nine brings many surprises and changes. O'Dar starts his life with Acise, the Sarnonn Rebels decide to take Ktahma, Khon'Tor's past catches up with him, and Acarado and Adia may be facing the biggest change of all. And don't forget Akar'Tor who is still planning his revenge. Looking forward to Book Ten which Leigh Roberts says will be the last I hate to see the series end I've thoroughly enjoyed it.

Clan meets The People!
5 stars plus! Clan of the Cave Bear meets Sasquatch! This series had me hooked from the start and eager to continue with each subsequent novel! I love how the characters were interwoven with one another, and the appearance of the "Wachini" made the reader realize how diversity can lead to wariness and distrust.
If you've read about the Clan and enjoyed that series then take the leap to this one! I'm sure you'll be enthralled! Looking forward to series 2!

Forever compelling.
This series has become a part of my life now. Leigh Roberts, you have imagined "reality fiction" and pulled us all into your story of Etera. Thank you for helping me through this crazy time of pandemic and pandemonium! Bring on number 10. Although the next book never comes quickly enough! Thank you!

Book nine
This book kept me from eating, doing housework and even sleep. The story is remarkably able to draw me in and not let go until the book is ended. I just wish the stories were longer so I wouldn’t have to wAit fir the next book.

This is by far the best series of books I’ve read in a long time!!!
You will not be disappointed in this series.
Leigh captures the characters in perfect detail and you can’t help but feel like you are there in the story with them.

There are more things, Horatio
I am finding change hard, as it is for the People. Here is such turmoil and upheaval, but still enlightenment, that I must get to book 10 immediately. And so...

This series is outstanding! Once you start reading you will not be able to put it down. Such well thought out details take you to another world.

Excitement abounds.
Very much enjoying the progression of this story. Coming to a great conclusion that I can't quite anticipate. Such fun.

I am a fan of this type of story.... the different and unusual. Have never read anything on Big Foot (sorry I don't retain the real name). The series was amazing and I read them one right after another. One of stories you want to see continue on. I know it was fantasy but it was so well written I could swear I was reading about real life. I felt as though I had learned so much about them by the end of the series. Thank you to Leigh Roberts to an amazing series that grabs you.
