Representaion Concering Books The First Pillar (Everville #1)
Owen Sage is the emblematic college freshman at Easton Falls University. With all the worries about his first year in college, he was not prepared for what would happen next. His way of life was flipped upside down when he mysteriously crossed into another dimension, into the beautiful land of Everville. His excitement was abruptly halted when he discovered that there was a darkness forged against both the natural world, which he knew well, and the new land which he discovered, Everville. He must devise a plan to save both worlds while joining forces with the race of Fron and The Keepers, whom both harbor hidden secrets he must learn in order to gain power over the evil that dwells in The Other In Between. With a race against time to save both worlds, his short time at Easton Falls did not quite prepare him for the evil, dark forces he must fight in order to conquer The Other In Between.Rating About Books The First Pillar (Everville #1)

I think "meh" pretty much sums it up. It's hard to write something because this book simply doesn't evoke any feelings in me other than boredom and frustration (at the writing).There are a number of flaws to this book that kept bugging me:1. WritingFirst off, the writing style. I can't help but feel that there is a beautiful, rich world in this book that is waiting to be discovered. However, the entire time, the writing constantly switches between spartan descriptions of events, locations,Original Post on Secrets from BooksI have recieved this book in exchange for my honest review.I would like to start with saying that I really enjoyed reading this amazing first book in the Everville series! I can't really find one word for it! To my mind, I find it as an amazing combination of the bravery from Lord of The Rings, the friendship from Harry Potter, the struggle from The Hunger Games(I haven't read the books yet but I am familiar with it) and it also gave me the nice feeling like
The First Pillar by Roy Huff starts off with three young students eager and ready to start university. One of them, Owen Sage is linked to another world Everville only through his dreams to begin with.There a crucial flashbacks in the begining where Owen remembers being bullied in School and is helped out by his friends Dante and Anika (ala Harry Potter getting helped out by Hermoine)The Keeper is a great, all-knowing but all caring character that gives the book a real Tolkien or even Pratchett
Author Roy Huff has created a fantasy with a lot of interesting stuff. Aimed at a young adult audience, nevertheless I enjoyed it at my advanced age of (mumble, mumble). I should think most anyone could enjoy the book. One thing I especially liked was the compact story. To many fantasies run on and on until I get bored.

I just got done reading your book today. I absolutely loved it and can't wait to read another one of your books.
I'm not ordinarily a fan of YA fantasy, but I tried to keep an open mind when I cracked open this book. I'm so glad I did. It's a well crafted adventure, leaping between the real and imaginary world. The story is strong and easy to follow with kudos to the author for creature development. I found it a welcome departure from more stultifying works of this type.
I received this book for free from Roy Huff in exchange for an honest review. Owen Sage has just started his freshman year at Easton Falls University, and is looking forward to a relaxing year of college fun. Unfortunately, he doesn't get much time as a normal university student before some quite unusual events begin around him. Out of nowhere, he is magically transported to Everville, an incredible and beautiful other dimension. Everville is having difficulty, though, and the Fron and Keepers
