Stiger’s Tigers (Chronicles of An Imperial Legionary Officer Book 1)
by Marc Alan Edelheit
Here’s the set-up:
The empire has endured many centuries but is now threatened by multiple wars and a major rebellion in the South.
A nobleman from an infamous family, imperial legionary officer, fighter and a right proper bastard of a man… Captain Ben Stiger finds himself reassigned from a crack legion to the rebellion simmering in the South. Placed in command of a truly terrible company, the 85th Imperial Foot, he is unknowingly sent on a suicide mission to resupply an isolated outpost, the garrison of Vrell. Along the way he must rebuild his new company, gain the respect of the men he leads, survive an assassination attempt, fight bandits, rebels, and an agent of an evil god. His companions on this journey of discovery and adventure are one of the few remaining elven rangers and a paladin on a quest for the High Father.
The battle to save the empire and the world begins here in the first book of this exciting new series!
Reviews:
“The book builds a wonderful foundation for the series. It gets you engaged in the characters and leaves many threads open to be filled in later. Honestly my only real gripe is that the second book isn’t out yet. Many fantasy novels use other races and magic all over the place. The writer makes magic rare and even frightening. Evil gods are the things of nightmares, not common place. Highly recommended.” – Amazon Reviewer
“I’ve been reading novels for about 20 years now and I’ve never written a review before. I say this to give you sincerity in what I’m telling you. This book is AMAZING! I enjoy investing myself into the characters and Marc did exceptionally well with all the characters. Stiger and his elf friend, Eli’Far have a depth that goes beyond whatever page you’re reading. Marc slowly gives you background on each one that explains their actions, thoughts, etc. My joy from reading comes from the characters and how the author portrays them. I’m also a roman history fan so the similarities in the novel appeal to me there as well. If you need a good book to read then chose this one. I promise you won’t regret the money and more importantly time.”
