"THE SORCERER'S RING has all the ingredients for an instant success: plots, counterplots, mystery, valiant knights, and blossoming relationships replete with broken hearts, deception and betrayal. It will keep you entertained for hours, and will satisfy all ages. Recommended for the permanent library of all fantasy readers."
â??Books and Movie Reviews, Roberto Mattos (regarding A Quest of Heroes)

A VOW OF GLORY is Book #5 in the Bestselling series THE SORCERER'S RING, which begins with the #1 Bestseller A QUEST OF HEROESâ??a FREE download on Kobo!

In A VOW OF GLORY (Book #5 in the Sorcerer's Ring), Thor embarks with his Legion friends on an epic quest into the vast wilds of the Empire to try to find the ancient Destiny Sword and save the Ring. Thor's friendships deepen, as they journey to new places, face unexpected monsters and fight side by side in unimaginable battle. They encounter exotic lands, creatures and peoples beyond which they could have ever imagined, each step of their journey fraught with increasing danger. They will have to summon all their skills if they are to survive as they follow the trail of the thieves, deeper and deeper into the Empire. Their quest will bring them all the way into the heart of the Underworld, one of the seven realms of hell, where the undead rule and fields are lined with bones. As Thor must summon his powers, more than ever, he struggles to understand the nature of who he is.

Back in the Ring, Gwendolyn must lead half of King's Court to the Western stronghold of Silesia, an ancient city perched on the edge of the Canyon that has stood for one thousand years. Silesia's fortifications have allowed it to survive every attack throughout every centuryâ??but it has never been faced with an assault by a leader like Andronicus, by an army like his million men. Gwendolyn learns what it means to be queen as she takes on a leadership role, Srog, Kolk, Brom, Steffen, Kendrick and Godfrey by her side, preparing to defend the city for the massive war to come.

Meanwhile, Gareth is descending deeper into madness, trying to fend off a coup that would have him assassinated in King's Court, while Erec fights for his life to save his love, Alistair and the Duke's city of Savaria as the downed shield enables the wild creatures to invade. And Godfrey, wallowing in drink, will have to decide if he is ready to cast off his past and become the man his family expects him to be.

As they all fight for their lives and as things seem as if they can't get any worse, the story ends with two shocking twists.

Will Gwendolyn survive the assault? Will Thor survive the Empire? Will the Destiny Sword be found?

With its sophisticated world-building and characterization, A VOW OF GLORY is an epic tale of friends and lovers, of rivals and suitors, of knights and dragons, of intrigues and political machinations, of coming of age, of broken hearts, of deception, ambition and betrayal. It is a tale of honor and courage, of fate and destiny, of sorcery. It is a fantasy that brings us into a world we will never forget, and which will appeal to all ages and genders. It is 75,000 words.

Books #6â??#17 in the series are now also available!

Morgan Rice is an excellent example of contemporary Young Adult writers. Plots are dense but relatable. ( )

Net als de vorige delen zat ook dit deel vol met taalfouten, en hier en daar zelfs stukken tekst die de vertaler schijnbaar niet kon vertalen. Het verhaal zelf was verder goed.

De wereld is nog steeds onduidelijk. De ene moment zitten de reizigers in een bos, woestijn, jungle..., en hebben de zonnen allerlei verschillende kleuren. Kom Morgan, zorg dat je de wereld een beetje logischer in elkaar zet. Het maakt het voor de lezer geloofwaardiger als we meer details kennen van de omgeving, zodat het verschijnen van een monster logischer zou zijn.

Gelukkig is de basis van het verhaal wel goed, anders zou ik nu gestopt zijn met het lezen van de serie.

This sequel is full of action and the characters continue to evolve. Thor and his companions go on a quest to recover the Destiny Sword in order to reestablish the shield on the Ring. In the meantime Andronicus takes advantage of the shield being down and is invading the Ring with his incredible army. A revelation is in progress about Erec's wife. Kendrick and other Silver members prove they value and their vow to serve a greater cause. At the end, you still want more and while we finish the book having that feeling, it is worth waiting for the next episode. And we are hanging there, with a grave danger over the head of Gwendolyn and Thor still deep into the Empire in search for the Sword.
I recommend this book to all readers who appreciate a well written novel full of adventure and fantasy. ( )
