The Hero, the Sword, and the Dragons by Craig Halloran is the first book in The Chronicles of Dragon series. It has everything it takes to give it lift-off, yet strangely it failed to captivate either me or my imagination. Best thing you can do is try it for yourself; at the time this review is published it's available for free on Amazon for Kindle.
The blog for book reviews to accompany my history blog which also contains book reviews that deal with history.

The Thief Who Learned Magic
Enter the world of fantasy writers: Althalus was a thief, a crook, and an occasional murderer; he was probably the best thief in the world.
And this fantasy story book is all about his adventures in a world of make believe. Or it should be
about his adventures, but a few things went wrong along the way. That might seem
normal for any story worth writing about. But a few things went wrong
with writing the book itself. Which makes it either a bad book, or an
interesting one. It depends on your point of view.
