Author Introduction
Brett Salter's background in writing stems mostly from the inspiration he found as a kid when heI read Fantasy and Sci-Fi books. These include The Chronicles of Narnia, The Xanth Novels, The Time Quintet, The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, and everything from Shakespeare to Dr. Seuss. In Brett's formative years, he joined several punk rock bands and wrote songs, poetry, and short stories aplenty. As an adult (?) Brett took on a dare and wrote the first book in my Talisman Series. Slater loved the feeling it gave and the idea of inspiring others so much that he kept writing until he had an entire series.
Blurb
"The Search For Synergy" is the first book in The Talisman Series by author Brett Salter. It follows the exploits of two middle-school boys, Rome Lockheed and Julian Rider, as they transition from normal kids into epic warriors fighting for the existence of the Earth realm. Rome is secretly a fire dragon from the Den of Volcana placed under a spell which hides his true form. Julian is an oddball, up-and-coming knight with a case of the "try-hards". Together, they perform an ancient pact which bonds their lives and souls forever. Under the tutelage and guidance of an eccentric, local librarian, Mr. Jones, the two learn of an impending invasion from an archaic evil desperate to invade from the other side of The Void.
My Opinion
The Search For Synergy by Brett Slater is an interesting YA Fantasy book with lots of dragons. The plot is relatively fast, got me in right from start. The narration is very simple and perfect for young readers. Young readers would be easily able to connect with the characters. I liked the portrayal of dragons and their power which is the most interesting feature of the story. The best part, the readers can easily finish the book within a day.
Definitely a 4 star book. Thanks to the author for providing me an opportunity to read and review the book.
