Fallfoiling is a darkprime magic that grants the user control over gravity, utilizing prime pine or maple to lift and drop objects or themselves. It is characterized by its strict limitation to vertical movement, meaning fallfoilers can only levitate up and down and cannot move things from side to side. This magic is essential to the Cothellon's infrastructure, as enslaved fallfoilers are used to levitate the massive sky cities and provide the lifting power for their sleek "fallcars". Prominent fallfoilers in the series include the underkids Beam, Speed, and Jabjoy, the incredibly powerful City Director Aelwynn who manages to temporarily hold up a falling city, and the young superuser Rylan.
Whilst I struggled with the concept of this book. Nearly giving up and abandoning it.
I am so glad I remembered my inner bookworm. The insatiable little girl who always finished a book. Always. Even if after the last page she thought. " well that was crap" on to the next one.
I am looking forward to the rest of the Metalwood Saga.
Thank you for sharing your amazing imagination.
This book seemed to take forever for me to read. But only after I started reading it it, I found out that it was extremely hard to put down. The Splinter Soul just goes to show that LOVE really conquers EVIL and HATE.
Does this series ever slow down? Not so far! It is well-paced with engaging characters and a fascinating plot that has kept me up late at night and setting an alarm to get up early to get even MORE reading time. I just finished book 5 and am, yet again (happens at the end of every Metalwood series book so far), deeply grateful to my husband for gifting me the ENTIRE SET. These books have me diving into the next one without a pause!
Jeremy Thomas Fuller has written a series that reminds me of the great fantasy writers of the last millennium. I hope that he continues creating his fantasy literature for decades to come.
I just finished this series. Overall it was a good read, an interesting twist on elves, humans,and other creatures.
I did find it hard to track just who was who and when things were happening with the myriad timelines.
The one thing that truly disappointed me was the introduction of JRR Tolkien into the storyline. It felt like a name drop for attention. I was in the last book, it wasn't needed and almost spoiled the entire read for me. Hence only four stars.
These are great stories and I can't wait to read the next one. I reallybdon't want them to end.
I really enjoyed this series, Writer was new to me ,
Glad I purchased these ebooks ,mine forever.I recommend this whole series.
I really liked the plot development in this series of books. I would encourage anyone who enjoys this genre, to read this series. They are a little different to the run of the mill books .
This book just wasn't to my taste in fantasy. I don't read foul language and don't like such darkness. Sorry I ordered the whole series before I realized this.
