    Another Hidden Gem - just like the first book.
    Both talk about Gods, Angels, Heroes, Demon Kings or should I say Dark lords? and lastly The unkown - of course there is still all those fantasy creature out there and way more then some stories.
    The story is not like those Heroes going around killing stuff and getting stronger nor a demon king going around killing stuff for his own good (tho he did many things like a real demon king/dark lord should do but he wasnt.....(not going to spoil)) anyway it is about a boy who is both a demon king and a hero of sorts tho at the end he bacome known as the Dark Lord which strike fear in people even After thousand of years. The Mad King who tried to kill the world to save it from death and despair.
    The story is dark fantasy with A LOT of mystries in between  (I feel like I am ordering humberger here lol...oh well) Tragedy - hope - despair - cool fights - A LOT of foreshadowing - again ALOT of mystries.
    Alot of thing were left unanswered in the first book (I wonder how he is going to relate most of them in this book tho....that will be cool).
    Well that was the first book`s half-assed summary with not too many spoilers.
    The second book is about the Dark Lord Alastor`s daughter - Astora - tho she is more like Messiah and quite literally like that tho without the talking part when he was a baby lolz (you will know what i mean if you read the first book).
    Will I cant say much about the second book because it just started tho it is progressing quite well.
    It got potential to become a Master Piece just like the first book.
    Tho I believe that the Author was lil hasty with relating somethings to the first book which didnt leave the desired impact but it was still quite good (The idea and how he wrote it and all).
    Oh well...gimme MOAR....

    ★★★ 2.5
    I said that both of the stories in this epic looked competantly done when I added them to my reveiw list, and Tales of Astora : Legacy does deserve its passing grade when compared to the other average works on RRL, but under more dedicated scrutinity... I can't render a full review of this particular novel in good faith.
    Everything feels very surface-level, especially when compared to the prequel. The grammar and style also feels like it regressed. Please slow down a bit. Your writing has potential, and it hurts to see it flubbed.
    The die hardiest of die hard fans of the first will surely be able to get through this, but you need more to sustain the intreast of those who arn't among them.
    Many of the style aspects mentioned in my review of your first novel are relevant to this one. If you give this the extensive edits it needs, feel free to contact me for a reevaluation. Don't give up.
