This review is from: The Second Prophecy (The Dragdani prophecies part 1) (Kindle Edition)
I downloaded this book yesterday and immediately enjoyed the start of the book.
I'm really liking the fact that the story it's self tells us what happens before Drago was born and it slowly but surely allows us to follow his life up to the age were his powers manifest.
I do have to say, for a novice writer, you've started off quite well.
Nice choice of cliff-hanger too, i'm looking forward to the second book in the series.

R. Alan Ferguson is new to publishing, and his prose does mark him as a newbie. However, he has a vivid imagination, and many of his story ideas are very good. Indeed, this fantasy includes some very unique details and many great place and character names. He also hints at a lot of thoughtful back story, which gives the setting a history and veracity.
Within, the land of Dorminya lies under the threat of the Dark Lord, Ulicoth. But a prophecy, spoken by a late, great king, promises hope. But do prophecies always come true? To those living close to the shadow, it seems not. Those with longer sight, however, still watch for a savior. And as The Second Prophecy spans two generations, this world of magical creatures must wait long and navigate many twists and turns to see if their expectations will be fulfilled.
If the word "prose" isn't in your general vocabulary and you like adventure, magic and alternate worlds, you'd probably enjoy a trip to Dorminya.

I'll send you a copy anyway, since you are the first person to show an interest. All I ask is that you give reviews on Goodreads, Shelfari and Amazon when you finish reading it. Let me know your email address and the format you'd like the eBook in and I'll be happy to send it to you.

That's fine. Thanks for taking the time to read and review my book.
You are welcome, I hope my comments are able to be put to use in some manner :) and if you would like me to discuss something else just let me know. Also I don't think I could find it on Amazon
Just so you know. There are aspects of the first book that will be answered in the second part of the story.As for finding it on Amazon. If you put in the full tile, The Second Prophecy (Part 1 of the Dragdani Prophecies). I think if you copy and paste that into the Amazon search bar, you'll hopefully find it.
I'm going to try it myself just to be sure. If you can't find it on Amazon, don't worry about.

Genre: Epic Fantasy
The Second Prophecy
Book Description
As the reality of the untimely death of King Jastark (John Stark) sinks in, it is up to the wizard and witch council’s to fight back the dark Wizard-Elf, Ulicoth. At least until the dead king’s son Drago (Peter Stark) can take the throne and fulfill The Second prophecy.
Will the fact that Drago was trained as an ordinary wizard and raised in Earth (the Normal world of man) stand in the way of him being the king the second prophecy says he'll be?
As the young king has just turned sixteen, his true powers have reached their peak. His luck goes from bad to worse as he has an unorthodox entrance into the mystical world of Dorminya, and Ulicoth will stop at nothing to track down and kill the boy king, and take over Dorminya forever.
