Thousands of years ago, in the wake of the great Story Wars, the great Sage Montok Waynew signed the Book Accords, thereby decreeing that all books be required to edify all of mankind. By doing so, it was the hope of the Sages to eradicate the crippling tyranny that had come to suppress the spirit of freedom and enlightenment worldwide. As a result of the new Accords, all books found to be undesirable were subsequently destroyed – lest they hinder the growth and development of future generations; however, in an age when the laws and traditions of old began to carry less and less weight, it was up to three brave young apprentices to restore peace, harmony, and understanding before the darkness of oppression reared its ugly head once more...

Combining taut action with an intriguing central storyline, Storytellers is an engaging, imaginative fantasy thriller. Ostensibly crafted for younger readers, author Martin Sharlow’s engaging tale of ancient myth and legend holds a salient appeal for all fans of quality literature – regardless of age. How is this possible? By keeping true to the spirit of its title; Sharlow’s own commendable storytelling does much to bolster the key premise of the story: to illustrate the power of words as they connect to create stories with the ability to shape and mold us in ways we can hardly imagine.

The solid debut of what promises to be a thrilling new trilogy, Storytellers is a vivid reminder of the striking beauty – and portentous danger – of language. A recommended read.
