Highly enjoyable, fast-paced, and full of adventure."--SciFicChick.com -- "SciFicChick.com""A nod a wink to classics like the Lord of the Rings and the game Dungeons & Dragons.

Forman lives in the western Rockies. He tries to write as much as possible while still attending to his many other hobbies, such as fishing, camping, hiking, and almost anything that will allow him to enjoy the magic of nature. He is also the author of Slathbog's Gold, The Horn of Moran, Albrek's Tomb, and Sands of Nezza --the first four books in the Adventurers Wanted series.

Features & Highlights

  • The long-awaited final volume of the Adventures Wanted series.
  • Whalen Vankin is the worlds greatest wizard, and he has only ever personally trained two other wizards. One is Alexander Taylor, a young man who has earned a reputation as a brave adventurer, a warrior, and man of honor. The other is Jabez, Vankin's nephew and a man whose choices have led him down a different, darker path.
  • Dark magic has covered Westland, and evil is stirring. Whalen and Alex must journey together into the heart of danger, confronting a sea serpent, battling their way through a goblin army, and facing down more than one dragon. Alex must find the legendary Axe of Sundering the one weapon that offers a chance to defeat Jabez and protect the land from the dark wizards plans. But finding it will be an adventure of its own as the only pathway to the Axe leads through the underground tunnels and secret passages of Castle Conmar.
  • But Jabez has one final weapon at his disposal: the powerful Orion Stone, which could spell the end to Whalen and Alex both.

Hay guys, Give Forman a break already! The guy has been really ill and is recovering from a serious problem, and people are crying because he is late publishing the book. You should be happy he is alive and around to get this next one out to us! Instead of complaining with the lateness of the publishing, wish M.L. Forman "speedy recovery", and be thankful you are fortunate enough to get the book in the near future. Just my point of view.

I wish it could have been better, but you should understand why.

I'm already feeling guilty about this. You need to understand that the M. L. Forman had a stroke (the bad kind, unfortunately, not a stroke of genius) while in the process of writing this book. As such, the series was brought to a rather abrupt end that ties up all the things. It's very clear to me that he wanted to write more books into the series, but he couldn't. Despite this, the majority of the book is all the fun that the rest of the books have been, and the ending is still powerful.

I mourn Forman's loss, and it becomes clear by the end of the book how it affected his ability to write (it's still high quality writing, though). I feel like it's necessary going into this book to understand that the ending isn't quite how anyone (including Forman) wanted it to be.

Love this series but so disappointed that Amazon put down that it would be released today and it wasn't and now it says that it's out of print. Looked at other sites and no one else has today as the release date so not sure why Amazon did. Did hear a couple of months ago that the author had a stroke or something like that so that might have something to do with it.
