The fifth instalment in L.G. Estrella's 'Unconventional Heroes' series, I found this to suffer somewhat from one unusual problem: namely, it's own length.

At 1521 (virtual) pages, that's more than 3 times as long as the previous instalment ("Two Necromancers, a Dwarf Kingdom, and a Sky City", which was 494 pages long) - indeed, I felt that this novel had enough content to be split across three separate instalments, with a clear delineation in the story between segments even if it is not presented as such when reading: there's no 'Part 1', 'Part 2' or 'Part 3' here.

For my money, Part 1 - or book 1 (5) of 3 (7) - would be the early parts of the novel, set in and around the Mercantile alliance, the middle part (what I would have preferred to be book 6 of 7 - would have been the Fortress of the title, the setup, action and denouement of the same and the final part (preferably book 7 of 7) would have been the action leading up to, and against the Titan.

It might also help to see Timmy and his crew actually lose once in a while ...

To start off a new fantasy world within a novella is a very brave thing to do. So often, you need an epic novel due to the amount of world-building that you need to do. Somehow, Cheryl Mackey has managed to build a world, complete with history, within a very short space that is not lacking in any way!

Our four heroes battle against evil and their memories. You get glimpses of their pasts which will intrigue you and leave you wanting more. A lot is answered in this novella but it is Part One so you are left with teasers for the next book, none of which I will mention so as not to spoil it for anyone.

If you are dipping your toe into the genre of Fantasy, or want an atypical fast Fantasy read, then I can definitely recommend this book. In fact, I would recommend it to all Fantasy fans.
