Geon was nearing the end of his patrol when he heard several small explosions to the North. Hurrying to the top of a nearby hill, he began scanning Northward with his distance viewer. What in the world is that? He saw a small cloud of dark smoke about 3 kloms away, and about a dozen people gathered around a dead lizard. Motion off to one side caught his attention, and he noticed a larger group, with several wagons, a little way behind the first group. Several people had broken off from the second group and were riding ahead, obviously in response to the same sounds he heard. Returning his attention to the closer group he began scanning in the other direction, he felt his blood run cold.Oh NO!...a pack of lizards, five...no six. They must have heard the noise! Looking further on he sucked in his breath. Skies above!

, two…no, two and a half kloms away according to the range finder. They won’t see them in time! What should I do? COLLAPSEJeff Webber draws us deeper into the epic mash up of distant worlds and magic with Enimnori: Challenge! In the first book, Scott Hathaway was drawn into a strange alien world filled with sorcerers and magic, where he used his modern knowledge to help sway that world’s history. Following that up, the second book let us explore deeper into the strange new world. This is why it was a fun turn of the story where the third book, Challenge, dives deeper into Scott’s character as he struggles to master magic and deals with the loss of being away from his loved ones back on Earth. I love how Webber makes characters that are likeable and human, and delving further into Scott’s struggle was a nice extension of that. That’s not to say that Challenge doesn’t have plenty of exploration into its magical world or political intrigue that makes the series great, as we start to see some interesting ramifications start to bubble to the surface here! Webber has managed to create a really fun blend of fantasy and sci fi with Enimnori, and drawing us further into Scott’s very human struggle makes Challenge an easy and satisfying read!
