The writing of the book was good, very descriptive of the scenes and the characters in the stories, the plot is easy to understand with the author showing the reader the experience of the main character and his life from his youth into adulthood. The reason I am giving this a 3 stars because I felt the pace of the plot was a bit slow , especially for a short book . For a fanatasy book I would of like more aspects , like a magic caste system in the battle scenes and I wish their was more written about the book of prohecy which was mention shortly in the book , I feel that would of added to the story a bit more . Overall for a short read it 's a good book.

I've read 6 of the 13 books that Google Play Books has about the Herald of Istra, the Godsland as the planet is apparently known throughout the series. As much as I dislike all the jumping around of the timelines throughout the various books, this is the book that makes it all worth it. Without Onin and Jehregard, the Royal Dragons would never have existed. It's the foundation of the entire series (along with Dragon Airways) and the Herald would be dragonless if Onin had not stood up for what he knew was right.

About the author

Jack McCarthy was born and raised in Salem, NJ and is a long-time resident of Cleveland, OH. His lifelong path to writing has included: dishwasher, video store clerk, taekwondo instructor, factory assembly worker, telemarketer, casual letter carrier, office temp, door-to-door vacuum cleaner salesman, phone psychic, cashier, gas station manager, flight attendant and software engineer. This combined skill set could belong only to one destined to write fantasy novels.

Jack McCarthy and Brian Rathbone have been friends since high school, where they shared their love for role playing games and for reading great fantasy fiction. Dog eared copies of The Lord of the Rings, the Dragonlance Chronicles, The Belgariad, The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, and other classic epic fantasy series were passed between our circle of family and friends. When Rathbone achieved success with The World of Godsland fantasy series, he wanted to share that experience as well. Jack had always been a natural storyteller, and Brian knew he could bring one of his most beloved characters to an entirely new level. Onin is the first book to arise from that effort.
