Book Review: The Macan: Search for the Sword of Spirits


Summary

300 years ago, Genoria was saved by a sword that was used to bind the evil Maggaedon into a magical sphere. The sword was split into two halves and hidden away to keep Maggaedon from returning. However, a new evil force helps him return and continue his evil schemes in the lands of Genoria. Six strangers with different abilities unite to find the sword of the spirits, to fight the evil forces and save Genoria.


Review

The Macan: Search for the Sword of Spirits is a fantasy action adventure by Vanda Ballard. It has magical elements and fascinating characters and creatures that kept me reading this book with utter interest. My favorite character is Gavick, an adorably funny curseling. His conversations with Dangel, a character who speaks Shakespearean English, is so hilarious.


What made this book such a great read were the characters that I’ve never read before. The world of Genoria had Danjins, Shinians, and Macans, and there were creatures like Coradales, Curselings, and Winglars. I had to google them thinking that they might’ve been based from a legendary folklore that I wasn’t aware of, but they all turned out to be original creations from the author.


I’m giving this 5 out of 5 stars. This book is original with great world-building. It is a literary masterpiece; the author’s wide imagination created such a fascinating story with a very well-written narrative, appealing characters, and attention-grabbing dialogues. I am completely amazed that this is the author’s debut novel and I sure hope to see a movie adaptation in the future. I recommend this book to ALL READERS who want to have the same magical experience as I did.
