Blackstone Drawing the Circle Book #1 of the Blackstone Series edition by Jason Beineke Lin Bo Children eBooks

This was a good book. Swords and sorcery. A city/league falls and our guy is involved. And although his intentions were squarely on the wrong side of truth and justice, at least in the beginning, his act were almost those of a hero the whole way through.

I liked this book. I will say that 3/4ths of the way through the book, with the dreamweaver attack, there wasn't enough for-shadowing of the event. It made the story feel jaring and I almost wanted to quit reading. If I was the author I'd fix that transition. It all worked out in the end though.

Blackstone Drawing the Circle Book #1 of the Blackstone Series edition by Jason Beineke Lin Bo Children eBooks Reviews

Truth be told, lately I have found that I am all fantasized out. It's been a very long time since I've picked up a fantasy novel, or a sci-fi one for that matter, that really drew me into the story and enveloped me with the characterization and plot line. But Drawing the Circle did just that, which was a real treat! Beineke has created a wonderful story that pulls readers into the text with its fantastical world filled with sorcery and strange creatures. It was a lot of fun to read, and I especially liked Blackstone. He is a very interesting character who is able to see goodness in even the most dangerous creatures. He also never gives up hope, attempting to help as many people as he can along the way, regardless of their perceptions of him, which is a very admirable quality.

The story follows Blackstone for much of the beginning, but then shifts to follow the life of Hiroe in order to give readers his background leading up to the confrontation with Blackstone. From there, the story parallels both characters as the two hero's travel together, but then it takes on a rather strange twist. Almost out of nowhere, the novel jumps ahead multiple years to show Hiroe as a grown man. Initially, I was quite unhappy with the sudden jump into the future. I wasn't expecting it and it disrupted the flow of the novel. I wasn't sure why Beineke decided to do this to such a wonderful story, but as I kept reading, small clues began to emerge that explained the sudden change in the novel, and by the novel's end, I was once again happy. In other words, there is a rhyme and a reason for this sudden shift, but to find out what it is, you'll have to read the book. I highly recommend it!
this was a well written book with a good pace, the characters were well thought out and believable. can't wait to read the next.
This is a truly exceptional story! The characters are unique, the battle scenes are well written, and the story flows very well! I can't wait to see what happens next. Great work from an exceptional new author!
I'm an avid reader, and quite honestly, a cheapskate. I found this book when it was being offered for free. The premise sounded interesting, and I liked the detail that went into the world.

However... it was painful to read. I've read a large number of free or cheap books on my kindle, and have seen some bad grammar, spelling, and sentence construction, but for some reason, this book was just too excrutiating for me. The grammar seemed pretty good, except for some run on sentences and awkward tense changes. The major problem though was TOO much detail. The author included some humor, but then ruined it by pausing in the middle to explain where the pun was coming from. The dialogue was very one dimensional. It honestly sounded like the same person was speaking for every character.

I understand the difficulty with writing a novel, and the author deserves a lot of credit for the effort he did put in on this book. That being said though, it would be in his best interest to hire an editor and practice writing dialogue for different characters. If only the dialogue felt natural and it wasn't sheer detail over load (ie, didn't need to know that a certain character's RIGHT hand was the particular hand shoved down the serving girl's bodice) I would have finished the book and given it a much better rating.

To the author, keep it up though. You have great ideas for stories!
Mr. Beineke has created a compelling drama, set in a world rife with magic. Although I tend to shy away from (non-Harry Potter) books about magic, this has me changing my mind quite a bit. The characters are well-rounded, with the lead, Blackstone's archetypal tough guy revealing layers of sensitivity as the story unfolds. The real lead of the story is Hiroe, a teenage warden's son who has suffered more than his share of misery. Together, they begin a journey that holds quite a few twists and turns.

Mr. Beineke's strengths in the work are a mastery of language, attention to detail, and a keen sense of pacing in the action scenes. I found myself wanting more action, not because the book was lacking in that area, but because those scenes were so well-written. One of the main characters, as I've mentioned, is a teenage boy, but there are some adult situations (PG-13?) and fantasy violence, so be aware.

A very strong first novel. I look forward to more.
