Swords, Sorcery, and…Small-Arms?
An American soldier is chosen to defend another realm.
Lieutenant David Kennisham was patrolling the mountains of Afghanistan, trying to complete his mission and live long enough to return to the United States, until fate intervened. Now he is a stranger in a strange land, and he is forced to rely on two women that he would have much rather avoided. One is the favored acolyte of the God of Love, and also a raging narcissist. The other is a breathtakingly beautiful, part-dragon, sorceress with anger issues. Hoping to return home, he grudgingly allows the pair to lead him to Eros, God of Love and patron deity of this new realm. Unfortunately, the path to get there is far more exciting, and dangerous, than a society based on ‘love’ should be. In a world of swords and sorcery, will his training and US Army issued weaponry help level the battlefield?
Champions Volume One: Awakening is the first book in the Champions Saga by Kenny Michaels. A veteran of the United States Army and Operation Enduring Freedom, Michaels brings an insider’s perspective on combat, and the true cost of victory.
Awakening: Uncensored Edition (Champions (UE) Book 1) Reviews
-
Very enjoyable read.
I enjoyed this book it was good at keeping me engaged with the story. The MC growth was nice and the ability to connect with the characters was good. -
As a fellow veteran of Afghanistan I appreciate the accuracy of the Army bits, and could tell that the author knew whereof he wrote.
For the book as a whole, I liked it, but I could have survived with the "censored" version. The sex scenes were good, as those things go, and were actually part of the plot, but I don't need the extended bits.
That didn't lose it a star, it's just a "4" book to me, which is nothing to be ashamed of. I'm currently reading the next one, so it was certainly enough to hold my interest. -
Very interesting book
I liked the interpersonal relationships and the love scenes. The actions was well put together and flowed without breaks. Great!
