The writing in this first book of the series was truly excellent. So much so that I'm surprised it's labeled "YA!" However, it is a coming-of-age story so... At any rate, the world building is strong and on 2 levels, which you'll find when you read it. The characters, both "gods" and others are fully developed over the course of the story. Fulco, our main protagonists, and the only Hum (human) in his village, goes through many changes and develops the ability to control the Spirits and begins to perform great feats in the "Portare" games (and here we have some LitRPG features!). Looking forward to reading/listening to book 2!

The World of "The Spirit of Things"
The land of Tellusm is a vast and varied place. From the Elphen (Elves) in the north with their Treesteads perched among the ancient Araj trees to the cursed Faeries (Goblins) lurking at Goblo’s Pass in the south. From the Hume-dominated (Humans) fortress city of Kyne to the Trollems (Trolls) living the simple life within carved homes scattered within the mountains.
It’s where atop three-headed serpents, wizards will use wild magic to battle each other in a game of Portare. A place where a giant raging storm reaching the sky cuts Tellusm off from what lies beyond. A place where the three gods and Spirits play their little games at the expense of all its inhabitants...

So what are you actually waiting for?
Click the button...CLICK THE BUTTON. Aha! Actually, to be honest with you. I am just glad you have found my book amongst the millions. If you don't purchase, then please go find another indie author and give them a chance. We're all just storytellers with wild imaginations looking for a person to hear them. Hope you have a wonderful day and if I see you, I hope it will be in my world.
Thanks! Ben

About the author
A light, fast paced,and fun fantasy novel.
I'm not going to go into to many details of the story as I think you should read it for yourself. But if you love a very strong fantasy universe with humor and deep characters. This book is for you. Love the map near the front as it helps you get an idea of how the world is placed. A light, fun, fast paced read.A bonus is if you have teenage kids it's a great book to share with them.

🔅I enjoyed this YA Fantasy Adventure book. It have a perfect blend of creativity and exiting page turning storyline. The cover is beautiful with a very relevant title. It have a incredible theme with the underlying lessons which make it a good read for everyone.
.
🔅The language and narration is fast and fluid which don’t let your imagination break in while roaming in this wonderful world of fantasy. And the short chapters of the book don’t make it feel like a heavy one.
.
🔅 I really enjoyed reading as The story had me wondering all through out that what would happen next. There were times when I thought that I know where the author is going, but the author has done great to beat us to it and now I didn’t know what to expect more in this book.
.
🔅 Overall a very sweet read recommended to all the young readers but everyone will enjoy it as much.
