What a true diamond in the rough. I was recommended this book by my sister as a fun read. I didnt expect much, but boy was I wrong. It turned out to be a page turner.
The first of a trilogy, it's a non-stop adventure of a young boy navigating through a tough yet exciting journey to his destiny. I couldnt put this book down and finished it in a few days. Now, I'm just eagerly awaiting book 2's release.
I love reading new/up and coming novelists as there are many great writers out there that are just waiting to be discovered by the mainstream. This feels like a book that may very well make it big.I'd like to take credit for discovering it before everyone else does!
I recommend this book for all ages, especially young readers.

Journey to Forge Mountain was a great read for my sons (godsons). Thanks to this book, my boys are a little bit smarter. If I ever have a child, it shall be named "Steel" after my favorite character in the book. If I could give 5 and a half stars, I would!

I admit it, I'm a little biased.
This is my debut novel. It was a labor of love and it will always occupy a special place for me.
Thank you to everyone who gave this book a chance.
