Here's my review of James McCann's book.

I am not usually a reader of fantasy. Even with two daughters who are avid LOTR and Harry Potter fans, I had previously read only A Wrinkle in Time and The Wizard of Oz in the fantasy genre, so I was pleasantly surprised to find so many elements of romance, humor, and drama included among the wizards, elves and warriors in Upon the Shoulders of Vengeance: The Journey to Armageddon.

James McCann writes in a sensory style that makes even his battle scenes literary. His characters are complex, and each have a history that begs to be told in volumes of their own, but their lives converge in this story for a climax that leaves the reader fulfilled and yet eager for more. I recommend this book to fantasy fans and anyone who enjoys a good tale.
