The epic fantasy Gideon''s Dawn continues to garner praise from reviewers across the country.
Here are just a few of the things reviewers have to say about Gideon's Dawn:
5 out of 5 STARS (Curled Up With A Good Book): "Michael D. Warden's debut novel, Gideon's Dawn, is ambitious and satisfyingly complete. The world Warden has created is clever and unique; the complex tale incorporates a comfortable blend of genres, from fantasy to suspense, and from mystery to political thriller."
4 our of 5 STARS (SF Reader): "Michael Warden's book has its own original voice and contains some of the best scenes of magical combat to be found in any realm of fantasy. The book flows with a smooth pace much like the Whey River that runs through the heart of the Inherited Lands and is peopled with a cast of interesting characters not soon forgotten. The history of this mythical world is rich and deep and many of the locales are beautifully depicted."
"Highly Recommended" (Edenstar Book Review): "Gideon’s Dawn uses vivid visual imagery that is a delight to read. Author Michael Warden paints a portrait of the Inherited Lands that is epic in scope and rich in details of history and geography -- it even includes a glossary at the end of the book. The imaginative descriptions provide much food for thought, as they illustrate the power of words and other spiritual principles in a literal way. The lessons are subtle, not preachy, and serve as an undercurrent to what is a very good story with strong, well-defined characters."
