    --Books and Movie Reviews, Roberto Mattos

    A SEA OF SHIELDS is Book #10 in the Bestselling series THE SORCERER'S RING, which begins with A QUEST OF HEROES (book #1)!

    In A SEA OF SHIELDS (BOOK #10 IN THE SORCERER’S RING), Gwendolyn gives birth to her and Thorgrin’s child, amidst powerful omens. With a son born to them, Gwendolyn and Thorgrin’s lives are changed forever, as is the destiny of the Ring.

    Thor has no choice to but to embark to find his mother, to leave his wife and child and venture away from his homeland on a perilous quest that will have the very future of the Ring at stake. Before Thor embarks, he unites with Gwendolyn in the greatest wedding in the history of the MacGils, he must first help rebuild the Legion, he deepens his training with Argon, and he is given the honor he has always dreamed of when he is inducted into the Silver and becomes a Knight.

    Gwendolyn is reeling from the birth of her son, the departure of her husband, and the death of her mother. All of the Ring gathers for the royal funeral, which brings together the estranged sisters, Luanda and Gwendolyn, in one final confrontation that will have dire implications. Argon’s prophecies ring in her head, and Gwendolyn feels a looming danger to the Ring, and furthers her plans to rescue all of her people in the case of a catastrophe.

    Erec receives news of his father’s illness, and is summoned back home, to the Southern Isles; Alistair joins him on the journey, as their wedding plans are put in motion. Kendrick seeks out his long-lost mother, and is shocked at who he finds. Elden and O’Connor return to their home towns to find things are not what they expect, while Conven falls deeper into mourning and towards the dark side. Steffen unexpectedly finds love, while Sandara surprises Kendrick by leaving the Ring, back for her homeland in the Empire.

    Reece, despite himself, falls in love with his cousin, and when Tirus’ sons find out, they set in motion a great treachery. Matus and Srog try to keep order in the Upper Isles, but a tragedy of misunderstanding ensues when Selese discovers the affair, right before her wedding, and a war threatens to erupt in the Upper Isles due to Reece’s inflamed passions. The McCloud side of the Highlands are equally unstable, with a civil war on the verge of breaking out due to Bronson’s shaky rule and Luanda’s ruthless actions.

    With the Ring on the verge of civil war, Romulus, in the Empire, discovers a new form of magic which may just destroy the Shield for good. He forges a deal with the dark side and, emboldened with a power that not even Argon can stop, Romulus embarks with a sure way to destroy the Ring.

    With its sophisticated world-building and characterization, A SEA OF SHIELDS is an epic tale of friends and lovers, of rivals and suitors, of knights and dragons, of intrigues and political machinations, of coming of age, of broken hearts, of deception, ambition and betrayal. It is a tale of honor and courage, of fate and destiny, of sorcery. It is a fantasy that brings us into a world we will never forget, and which will appeal to all ages and genders.

      Trust is a difficult thing for the Western, Eastern, Southern, and Northern kingdoms of the Ring. To learn that the people of the McCloud have refused to make peace. They have chosen to become their nature and continue in the old ways of their formal king. They have brought out from Luanda MacGil McCloud the same evil that has led her to become heartless.
      The rest of the rings have set things in motion that bring the downfall of all the rings. By becoming their own worst enemy. They have to contend with Empire again this time they deal with far worst than they ever have. It will become impossible for them to come out out it alive because this kind of enemy is far worst than their encouter with the Empire. The evil that is coming for them is more dangerous than the one they defended this one is more evenil than the formal enemy.

      The story is great and I love the narration. The writing is sometimes a bit amateur though and it distracts from the story. For example, "he leaned in and hugged her, and she hugged him back, then he whispered I love you ....." There is no need to add the "she hugged him back." It takes away from the impact of the words he uttered as he hugged her. Also repetitive phrases like "dropped to the ground, dead." It's not necessary to add that to the details of every single person who gets stabbed or sliced. We assume that if he was sliced across the throat, that when he drops to the ground, he's dead. It's also not necessary to add the names of every single person in a group every time they are mentioned. Once at the beginning of the scene is good, then just "they all..." or "the rest of the group," etc. It is just tedious sometimes and the story takes a back seat to these odd, unnecessary details. It reminds me of a child telling you about a new toy, but having to tell you about all the people they saw along the way and what color the buggy was before they get to the point. Some things are implied and should be omitted from the writing in order to make it flow better. I also think there are just too many books. Spreading a story out over 3-5 books is fine, but I'm on #10 and still not done. Just my opinion of course and, as I said, I do love the story.
