Age of Shadows
Song of Echoes #2
by R.E. Palmer
As Elodi strives to defend her realm against a new enemy threatening the north, Toryn discovers the dark secret that plunged Hope into despair, destined to live under a shadow of her own making.
But as both struggle in the face of overwhelming forces, the Archon demands all who can bear arms, rally to his cause.
REVIEW
5 out of 5
This was an excellent book. I highly recommend reading book one so you can get the most out of this book, but you also won’t be completely lost if you don’t. Palmer has a unique voice that captures the reader, and I enjoyed switching between Elodi and Toryn’s viewpoints. There’s plenty of tension, intrigue, and character growth throughout the story to keep the reader fully engaged. Epic fantasy lovers will fall in love with the world, and anyone who enjoys a coming of age journey will love the character arcs woven into the main story. I don’t want to give any spoilers, but suffice it to say you don’t want to miss this one!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
As an avid reader from an early age, I’ve always enjoyed books (and also the films of my favourite books). Whilst I read a wide range, I tend to lean toward science fiction, fantasy and historical (with a military angle).
I first wrote short stories in my early twenties, and although I’ve long since lost them, I can still recall most of the details as if I’d done them yesterday – in fact, a few ideas I had back then surface in my first book, Sky.
Away from writing, I run at least five times a week (usually with my dog), and will often amuse myself with ideas for stories. Sometimes they’re based on what I see on my run, other times they just come out of the blue. Once I have an idea, I let it roll around in my head for a week or two and see what happens.
The test comes when I’m falling asleep. If I find the idea coming back and taking shape just before I drop off – then I know it’s a goer. I get all flashes of inspiration in that wonderful moment when you start to drift, and suddenly your thoughts don’t seem entirely your own – hence the first line in my first novel Sky :0)
