Kurzbeschreibung

In a future where ignorance has destroyed the world that we know, humans are slaves and Mages - advanced beings with abilities beyond everyday reach - rule the land.

Avalon Redding is one such Mage. Barely eighteen years of age, she wields the gift of fire yet she is unable to control it. She leaves her family in the dead of night and heads to the city of Frost Arch, her future seemingly grim.

Will Avalon be able to overcome the trials that befall her? Will she be able to save the ones she loves and stay strong within herself?

Time will tell.

'Frost Arch' is the first book in The Fire Mage trilogy

Frost Arch: Wonderful and Compelling 14. März 2012
Von AtticusBookman - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Like many others, I found this book on its release date and was instantly interested in both its title and description. Now, I have to admit that I do not read a lot of fantasy fiction, having most of my time consumed with grading essays and reading novels with my students, but there was something about this book that caught me; and, I am glad it did.

Frost Arch is the first book written by Kate Bloomfield and she succeeds wonderfully in her work. The novel follows a young mage who struggles with both feelings of inadequacy and isolation in regards to her fellow mages. These feelings provide the impetus of her journey into Frost Arch where she succeeds in starting her life over while simultaneously meeting very interesting and colorful characters who help her on her way.

The novel reminds me a bit of the X-Men stories in that the powers that each mage receives can sometimes be more of a curse than a blessing; and thus, the novel ultimately centers around finding your own strength and living the life you were born to live as opposed to the life you think that you would want to live.

Although, I would say that this book might be intended to a teenage audience, the novel does have some surprisingly dark scenes that caught me by surprise and added a level of realism that I had not expected.

I look forward to the second book and urge anyone reading this review to read the novel and support this budding writer.

Interesting Reading, Looking forward to Book 2 11. März 2012
Von Jennifer B. Chung - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition
I borrowed this book from the Kindle library, but I definitely think it is worth buying. The concepts were interesting, and the plot moved along nicely. You can definitely tell that the author is English (rather than American) because of the use of certain phrases that only the British say. I actually enjoyed figuring out the equivalent meaning in American English. I had mixed feelings about the protagonist, Avalon. She is often intriguing, but often really slow on the uptake. In other words, other characters have to repeat things several times before she understands what they mean. Her insecurity is often more annoying than endearing. I found myself thinking that she would be mostly useless if not for her faithful and brave friends. A little bit like Harry Potter in the beginning without Hermione's quick intelligence and resourcefulness. I hope that the author makes her horoine, Avalon, a little less clueless in the next two books. I definitely get that the character was sheltered and knows very little about the world, but she could definitely act a little less slow-witted. Maybe the author (Kate) is targeting a much younger audience that has to be spoon fed a little bit, but she should have confidence that more mature readers will be interested in her book and can follow along perfectly without being led too much.

I liked Jack's character. I liked that the author hinted at some of his secret activities. I loved Raeven's character. Only just learned that it should be pronounced REE-VEN (not Raven), just like encyclopaedia. Definitely hope to see Raeven in the next two books.

Note that the book did not really delve much into the human apocalypse, but that was an interesting concept as well. Looking forward to reading more about that and the treatment of humans in book 2.

Oh, and another small note to Kate, there were a lot of typos in my downloaded version. But the story was so engrossing, I tried to just go with the flow. Overall I really enjoyed Frost Arch and will be buying the second book when it's ready to be published.

EXCELLENT first effort to an author with a great imagination! Kudos and many thanks for the engrossing reading!!!

(Whoever gave this book a 1-star review is being completely absurd and clearly did not actually read the entire book.)

Exciting new trilogy 9. März 2012
Von Angel9520 - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
I have read a lot of fantasy, some good, some great, some not so great. This one is great! From the outset I was intrigued with Avalon, the fire Mage, and my heart went out to her plight, but I never dreamed that the story would pull me in as it did or offer so much excitement. She is an amazing heroine with equally amazing friends. I cannot wait to read the next installment, her future and that of her family is so uncertain; there is so much that the author could do to expand the story and I am sure Ms Bloomfield has the talent to make it happen.
