Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

A star-lord and USA Today bestselling author of character-driven, multi-level science fiction and fantasy, Michael J. Allen is a former US Navy submarine nuclear reactor operator, scuba diver and avid toy starship collector. He enjoys helping people chase their own dreams through financial coaching, infusing his quirky sense of humor – and the occasional sneaky pop-culture reference – into both real life and fiction.

At over two dozen published stories, he’s recently contributed his longtime beloved Starflight universe. His released books span the whole gambit of the SF/F genres from space opera and military science fiction to urban, western and contemporary epic fantasy. He credits childhood heroes like Robin Williams, Danny Kaye, Terry Pratchett, Gene Wilder, and Weird Al Yankovic for this seemingly random madness.

As I said in my review of the first book, I have been looking for a simple but exciting series and love a good magical/fantasy. The first book was better, however, this book has been mostly setting up for the next book. I have decide to follow Michael J. Allen and try his "Scion" series and hope the next book is released soon.

This second book in the series moves the story with much further, which is a pleasant surprise, since I wasn't sure I was even going to read it after how long the first one was. They're definitely worth the time and effort. Great world building.plots, and decent editing.

I discovered this series by getting the first book free through a promotion. I liked it so much that I bought this book, 2nd in the series. Now I'm hooked! Excellent storyline, unexpected twists and turns, and lots of characters to follow. It's a riveting read that I had trouble putting down.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than the 1st book
Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2020
For the record, I received an Advanced Review Copy (ARC) of this book with the request that I leave a voluntary honest review for other potential readers. Having said that, here is my honest opinion and review of this book. Well, this book certainly lived up to and surpassed the original story. The world building has been extended and is even more detailed. The characters have even more depth with the new revelations. I find the series quite fascifascinating. It is usual hard to top the success of your first installment but I have to say that I am impressed. Although, a bit of tragedy is rather sad (I won't say more as I prefer not to give out spoilers (Thank you River Song)). The main villian is definitely interesting and I really do want to find out what it is that is motivating these actions. The other villains have no idea that they are being manipulated. This story is absolutely worth the time to read it. I look forward to the release of the next book.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Bittergate Saga Continues
Reviewed in the United States on December 6, 2019
The intense modern fantasy which took shape in Bittergate 1 continues with The Wizard's Bane. Although there are many fascinating characters in this moving and intricate tale, Drake is the one who, without a doubt, steals the show. This charming shape-shifting dragon is put to the test as he attempts to put right the wrongs done by the Wizard's Bane, the renegade band of centaurs intent on destroying Jedadiah Shine and all that is precious to him. Drake encounters new friends and enemies during his adventures. Meanwhile, the evil Zero is intent on continuing his quest for vengeance as well.
There is great peril at every turn in the secret mystical world which exists in tandem with the mundane world. The level of care taken in crafting this world and the characters that dwell therein is evident. For those who enjoy a detailed yet never boring story filled with sorcery, this book is sure to please.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
