Fantasy Book Review: Beckwood Brae by David H Webb

Beckwood Brae Australian fantasy author David H Webb has written an epic fantasy called Beckwood Brae that forms part of The Chronicles of the Corriian Wars. FantasyBookReview.co.uk thoroughly enjoyed the book and the full review of the book can be read by following the link below the review snippet.

“Beckwood Brae is a very enjoyable and well-written book – fans of Tolkien will like what they find here; fans of Raymond E Feist’s Magician will also find that this is for them. The battle scenes are clearly described and exciting; the characters are well formed and easy to emphasise with. Webb is a talented storyteller and his story is a classic – the local village lads that rise to become men who shake the very foundations of the world. There is intrigue, betrayal and bravery – all set within a beautifully described land – David H Webb has a real gift for describing trees, don’t ask me why, he just does and I still have the mental images of the forests near the mountains…”
