My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Yet again another amazing book by our favorite author. While this is the fourth installment in the series, it could be read as a standalone. However, I personally recommend that you read the entire series because the characters are amazing, the plot is fantastic, and the author knows just how to keep you interested enough to keep furiously flipping through the pages. Her writing style though is so unique and beautiful that I have fallen in love with ever book of hers that I have read. So if your looking for a good book this weekend I highly recommend this one.

Our favorite author is back with a third installment to their series, and it is just purely amazing.

Journeys Through Collection: Volumes 1-3 by James Talisman – Review by Stephanie nicole

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

Book1
Journeys Through SpaceTime (Journeys Through Book 1) is the first installment to this Sci/Fi/ fantasy story. Mr. Talisman gives us a complex and detailed story with lots of characters to keep track of. This story has everything that a reader could ask for including action, hidden agendas, politics, adventure, and danger. There’s so much in this story that you find yourself flipping the pages eagerly to find out what happens next. Since this is the first installment to this series there are a lot of suspenseful moments, some of which get tied up in pretty bows and others that are left unsolved, leaving his readers to anticipate book two. But if your looking for an exciting Sci/Fi/fantasy book to read this weekend then I highly recommend Journeys Through SpaceTime (Journeys Through Book 1) by James Talisman.

Book2
James Talisman does it again! Journeys Through TimeSpace was even more amazing then Mr. Talisman’s first book, he really knows how to deliver a plot that hooks us from the beginning and characters so fantastic that you can’t put his books down. While this book includes time travel, danger and more, Mr. Talisman has a way of writing that makes you feel like you are right there with his characters. Mr. Talisman has a very vivid imagination and he gives his characters lots of plots and agendas, the question is will his characters succeed? You will have to read Journeys Through TimeSpace to find out.

Book 3

While this is the third installment in the series it definitely didn’t disappoint. Once again we’re taken on a wild fantasy/sci-fi adventure. Several of my favorite characters make a reappearance in this third installment, and several new characters that just pull the story together and give us a fantastic adventure. Personally I really recommend reading the previous two books in this series, while you technically don’t have too it is highly beneficial for reacquaint characters, plot lines, and backstory. This story is so well thought out, full of complex characters, multiple layers of detail, and an adventure that will keep you on the edge of your seat. This story was so great I can’t wait to see what our author gives us next.
