After picking up a copy of Awakening from a signing the author was doing in Brampton I found myself unable to put it down. I was reluctant to purchase a &quot;fantasy&quot; novel at first, but, once you start reading the book immerses you in the world of Tiluse. The novel is a surprisingly easy read and even the novice fantasy reader will easily become caught up in the storyline. It turns out this is Jamie William's first novel, but, after reading it you will understand it should be the first of many to come.
