Journeys Through Collection: Volume 1-3 by James Talisman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Who doesn’t love boxsets? I love that you get all three books at once and no stopping to get the next book it is right there.

Book one is a sci-fi story and is his debut book. It is a unique and interesting tale that he has lovingly shared with us. You can tell he has written the story with passion and poured his heart and soul into it. The characters were many and varied as the story takes place, as the title says, through spacetime with multiple species and races and worlds you can only imagine. James’s writing, descriptions and depictions are very detailed, and you can easily imagine what the words portray. The concept of All-That-Is is intriguing and many will relate to some of the teachings/concepts that James has given us in the book. To that end it is a complex story with multiple layers and sometimes I had to re-read something just to take it all in and absorb what was being said. I also felt that the story could have been told with less words. That being said I look forward to seeing what James comes up with next.
If you love sci-fi grab a copy and settle in for a unique tale that will get you thinking.

Book two It is an adventure where the story is multi layered and complex with a lot going on with so many character players. James certainly keeps you on your toes. As with the first book, James has once again given the reader a lot to think about in the aspect of spirituality and time travelling and a shared consciousness throughout a multiverse. In this book the players are tasked with finding a treasure that is coveted and is shrouded in mystery and age-old time. Again, I found myself thinking that the story could have been told in fewer words, but it was interesting to see how James has grown from his first. I look forward to seeing where he takes us next.

This author is really coming into his own with this third book in his Sci-Fi fantasy series. It is a multi-layered adventure where the author has woven many complex threads to make this compelling tale. There is a lot going on with a cast of many and plenty of action to keep you engaged. Whilst this is a work of fiction it does make you look at spirituality and take you on a journey into the vast array of alternative thinking. Just what is our purpose in life and how we became, how we are connected, what more is there out there that we truly do not understand and have yet to discover. Make sure to read the books to gain an understanding of the world and characters that have been brought to life. There is plenty of action and adventure, drama intrigue and danger. It really is a thought provoking read that will challenge your thinking.
I look forward to what comes next.
