"Apocalypse Now was one of the first films that I saw that showed film could be a malleable art form, something that could exist outside of a super-traditional three-act structure. Martin Sheen and his character are sort of wrestling with more than just trying to find courage, but also trying to find some reason for why he was there in the first place. Speaking to a lot of Vietnam vets, I know it’s especially prominent in the Black experience. Soldiers felt incredibly disenfranchised about Vietnam because they weren’t being respected back home, but expected to have the motivation to fight for their country. But looking at it even from Martin Sheen’s case, his character is white, but that was part of his motivation."

One word.....Epic!

I'm reminded of medieval times right from the start. Courage, valiance, swordsmen, magic and so much more.

Niome is about to embark on an awe-inspiring mission accompanied by four friends and family......not just any mission but one that had long been foretold. The personal journeys are no less important, not only on an individual level but as a group.

This is an epic journey that leads to new friendships, strong alliances and surprises. The only thing I've struggled with is when the characters speak in their native tongue.....I'll be honest I didn't even attempt to pronounce any of it ha ha!
    That aside this is a brilliant read that is ideal for teens onwards to enjoy.
