I don’t usually read fantasy. I didn’t even know that I liked fantasy, but after reading Sever Bronny’s books, it turns out that I do! This book was gifted to me and I approached reading Arcane with an open mind, and absolutely fell in love with the characters. The story was so captivating I had great difficulty in putting the book down, often saying to myself “just one more chapter,” only to say it again at the end of that chapter! Needless to say, I didn’t get much done other than reading that week. Fortunately, Sever Bronny is a prolific writer who has continued to build upon this wonderful world he has created. I have read all of his published books (The Arinthian Line, Fury of a Rising Dragon, and Chronicles of Anna Atticus Stone) and eagerly wait for the next book to come out.
I am now reading Arcane for the second time and am amazed that again, I just cannot put the book down! The descriptive style of writing lets my imagination run wild, and a lot of attention has been given to the subtle details of each and every scene and encounter. Understandable and detailed explanations of spells help to paint a vivid picture of what a world filled with arcanery might look like; and it’s this immersive way of writing that pulls me into the world of Sithesia.
In this coming-of-age tale, the reader accompanies young heroes on a journey as they discover themselves through adventure and learning arcanery. Their individual strengths and weaknesses are revealed as they each struggle with personal loss and navigate grief, all while trying to survive against all odds. With sensitivity and care, Bronny also addresses topics like guilt, bullying, insecurity, and finding self-confidence. While the book revolves around a few specific characters, everyone who appears in the story has their own unique personality and plays an important role in the overarching plot—no matter how small. If you like an immersive adventure story with vivid details and very likeable protagonists then you will love this book! Just be prepared to say...”just one more chapter!”

AND SO BEGINS AN EPIC SAGA FOR THE AGES . . .
Join Augum, Bridget and Leera in a magical adventure as they quest to save their kingdom from a vicious tyrant—all while apprenticing under their legendary but cantankerous mentor, Anna Atticus Stone. Enter a world where warlocks, although rare, reign supreme, and the common farmer and soldier fear their power. A world where the secrets of bygone eras affect the present in the form of ancient mysterious castles, forgotten labyrinthine puzzles, and enchantments long sunk to permanence. Experience training in the volatile arcane arts, the blossoming of friendship, and the turbulence of youth thrust into warlock warfare. And experience first hand why The Arinthian Line has garnered an international fan base, with a fan-run Discord server and a devoted following. So it begins with Arcane (The Arinthian Line, book 1) . . .
A magical fantasy series for all ages
"Couldn't stop reading. Best fantasy series since Harry Potter."
"I read a lot of fantasy books and I have to say this is one of my favorite series in a long time. The author takes great care to craft a world that draws you in. While it starts off as your typical young poor youth, the story and how it comes together really sets this series apart. The characters are awesome - evil necromancer, awesome old grandma, young lead that's not always doing something dumb. The magic system impressed me too, it's practical and set up so not everyone can just whip up some strong magic and beat people who are way more experienced. Great read and worth a buy...you won't be disappointed. I read all five books in a week."
