Have you ever played a game and thought, "Wow, if only this was real?"

Well, in J.L. Wilson's debut novel Renaria - into the Adyton it is. If you love all things magic and fantasy. You will love this novel.

The time is set in the future Earth after a Worlds War in 2126. After Earth is almost destroyed by what they think is an asteroid. Not only does Earth now have a new day Novusday, But there is now virtual video games. Leda, our main character is seventeen and a High-Elf Scout in her favorite game Renaria. Along with her twin brother Alex a "Sorien" or soldier and guild member Travis a "Prior" or healer. Will be contacted by a fairy like Feon with intructions concerning keeping them safe. They will be led to a fourth member of there chosen team Menaia a "Mage". Together these four will piece together information sent to them revealing, Renaria as a real place. Connected to there world through the video game by the evil Adepts. They travel to Renaria and meet the real Magistrates of the Consortium. This is where they will find out they were chosen to defend Renaria from the Adepts and stop them from stealing a special Ore that fuels terrible weapons, used in the real world Earth. The four team members or "Seons" must decide to stay and fight to protect Renaria and Earth or go home.

This book was such a joy to read. The characters are well developed and I love how time is spent on each character and their own journey and trials they face in Renaria and training. There is reference to a slight romance between Leda and Caleb. I do wish this was a little better developed. Leda has an obvious crush on Caleb and he knows it, as they can read thoughts. At the end Caleb kisses Leda and vows to see her again. I just felt the building of a romance was missing. The thought he's just not that into you crossed my mind as Caleb stops himself anytime he starts to show possible affection for Leda and moves on with his duties. I so hope there is a sequel to this book. I want more of Leda and Caleb. I'm also interested to see how life is after the Seon's or our characters return home. AND.. what a cliff hanger Leda spots her dad coming home. In this novel Leda and Alex's Dad has gone missing and presumed dead. However. Leda is contacted by her dad in the game. He was fully aware of all things Renaria before he went missing and its with his help, through Leda's visions that the Seon's figure out how to get to Renaria and Leda is able to access her abilities. What abilities? Well each of our characters takes on the abilities of there chosen game characters (happy dances). How awesome would that be. I have to say the world building and pure imagination of J.L. Wilson is not only incredible it is refreshing.

So if you are a gamer or a lover of all things fantasy and magic. This is the perfect read for you. Journey with our Seon's to a place of magic and adventure, train with them, and defeat evil.

Enter the world of Renaria.

Renaria Into the Adyton Volume 1 JL Wilson Jo Michaels 9781502471321 Books Reviews

Review posted from The Anomalous Bookshelf.

Small spoiler alert (2nd to last paragraph). Skip if you don't want the spoiler. Last paragraph shares overall thoughts.

I picked this up because the moment I read the synopsis, I wanted to read it. I mean, who sees a lot of books with lead characters who are gamers... and the game ends up being real? I don't. So, I became super excited to read it. However, what I read was not what I expected.

It felt like there wasn't enough detail to draw me into the story. There are several scenes lacking. Where there's action, there's not enough happening to keep me at the edge of my seat. It also seems like the brother and sister are complacent with what's happening as the story guides us up to the plot.

When finally introduced to Renaria, it finally goes in depth with the world and some of its plants/animals. I really appreciate the thought that went into the world... especially some explanations that I'm assuming are derived from real life science, but I didn't research it myself.

About halfway through the book is when you finally start learning more about Renaria and the author does this well. It is not plagued with info dumps, but rather short and blunt explanations through dialogue as we learn more with the characters themselves.

What is it with these people putting their heads to their chest to concentrate? That feels like such an awkward position. It's uncomfortable and how can one concentrate with that ache from your head at a weird angle like that? Literally, every scene where they had to concentrate, there was one of them putting their head to their chest. I don't know, but that didn't really sit as realistic for me.

One of the things that really irked me about the story was how naturally they all took to their powers. Alex struggled, but only for... what, less than a chapter? Where's the struggle? Where's the doubt that comes from the struggle before they start believing themselves? Character development requires struggle. Speaking of development...

It felt like there was no character development at all. None of them seemed to change; they all remained who they were when they started the journey. Because of that, it was hard to connect.

The action scenes weren't enough to keep me involved and wanting more... They didn't keep me on the edge of my seat. It didn't feel like there was any real danger. Each time they were in a fight, they all got out alive and unscathed. That's not very entertaining, now is it?

As for the romantic interest? Well, let's just say it was forced. It was rarely talked about, and when it was, it was placed in random moments. Those moments, my face twisted up and I rolled my eyes. Look, you don't need to have a romantic interest in there if you didn't want one. Don't just force one because we can tell... and it can greatly impact the story.

SPOILER ALERT --
For people finding someone they thought was dead, only one seemed really emotional about it. That makes it hard to feel happy or even anything for them which, in turn, deeply affects the connection to the characters and the story itself.

OVERALL, the plot was promising. It has a LOT of potential and the premise was interesting. Unfortunately, I don't think it was perfectly executed. It was hard to feel into it... I wasn't sucked in and for a fantasy like this, you HAVE to suck me in for it to be an amazing book. If you're going to create a world, make sure you can make it so realistic, your reader won't want to put it down.
I loved this book and her first book Renaria. Loved fantasy and this the story line did not let me down!!
I love the book and I think you will find that out
That you will love this book too

Move over Tron! There's a new user in town and HER name is Leda! Being a gamer girl myself this book had me at the first mention of MMORPG. Is Renaria an online gamer's virtual paradise or a real mystical place full of magical beings and beautiful landscapes that rival any here on earth? Find out for yourself when you enter Into the Adyton. You won't be disappointed!
