Book One in the complete Shifter War trilogy.
For centuries, the deadlands have separated the kingdoms of Roldaer and Amas, enforcing an uneasy truce. But the deadlands hold their own secrets.
Danil is a deadlands scavenger, his days spent scouring a barren land for ancient battlefield relics and mage-crystals. When the brutal magi of Roldaer take over his village, Danil becomes the key to unleashing a powerful enemy set on plunging both kingdoms into war.
Desperate and on the run, he finds unexpected aid from the Amasian shapeshifters. Among them is Hafryn, an irreverent wolf shifter who fights to protect Danil with sword, tooth and claw. But safety with the shifters cannot last. As the magi set their plans into motion, Danil and Hafryn will have to embark on a terrifying mission to a broken citadel where an ancient enemy awaits. Failure to stop the magi may cost them far more than their lives, and Danil discovers that courage and determination may not be enough…

So once I began to read Messenger, I simply could not put it down. As I sat at work, I found my mind drifting back to it, anxiously wondering what would happen to Danil. The author creates such a rich vivid world, with characters that I couldn't help but invest in and welcome into my life. I love that the deadlands feels like a fully developed character in itself, thrumming with an energy that comes alive and off the pages and that if you turn your head just so and lean in, you could hear it whisper its secrets to you.I'm looking forward to rereading it and cannot wait to start reading Book 2!

Messenger The Shifter War Book 1 edition by K K Ness Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Hm... this was one of the “fresher” stories I’ve read of late. And it started off great! I don’t know where it started to get kinda meh for me though...maybe halfway?
The first half of the book was exciting. But then the second half of the book...did not wow me much even though it was starting its climb to the apex of the story. I don’t even know why that is.
Anyways, I’m hoping the next book will be better?
I found this a bit difficult to read through. Personally there just doesn't seem to be any actual emotional connection between the lead characters who are supposedly attracted to each other. (Not to mention it is hard to get over wolf boy being painfully cruel before they get together and never showing any emotion in actually being sorry.) The story itself is okay though, and if you're not looking for a romance but more of a poorly paced novel with not very gripping action and a decent wrap up that doesn't force you to read the next book to feel like you've hit an actual ending you won't be disappointed.
(Originally reviewed for Love Bytes Reviews. Rated 4.5 out of 5.0 Love Bytes.)
I really enjoyed reading this book. Messenger by K.K. Ness, which is the pen name of identical twins from Australia, is one of those books that just grabs you and drags you into the story.
I really felt for Danil and his plight, right from the first page when he was described as hopeful and then his shoulders fell when he didn’t find what he was looking for in the pan he was using to try to find the rare mage-crystals. When we first meet the shifter Hafryn and he is taking the only crystal Danil found, and we know that Danil will be beaten by a member of the magi for failing to find one, I wasn’t sure about him. I did though kind of guess that this might be the introduction of the future love interest based on a couple things that were said before Hafryn ran off. When events transpire that force Danil to flee his home village, and he is rescued by that very same shifter the story begins to move even faster.
This one had it all. Good guys, bad guys, ancient evil, and a main character who learns far more about himself than he ever expected. Danil has always been the lowest of the low, spending his time scavenging the deadlands for relics of an ancient battle, and looking for the mage crystals like the one that Hafryn stole from him in the beginning of the story. But he can be so much more when it comes down to it.
Before I knew it, the authors had me at the last page and I am eager for more. Their writing style was very good, it showed me a different world, without getting too caught up in details. I was able to picture it myself in my mind. The pace was perfect.
I was happy to see that there is a second book in the series, and I’m off to read it immediately! I highly recommend this one to readers of fantasy/shifter/underdog type stories. I loved it.
This was a good start to a new series. I enjoyed this new world, unlike any I've read before. Often with these fantasy types books, you find a lot of the world building is primarily the same. Yes each book is different, but the concept of their world's are very similar. I enjoyed that the shifters weren't all the same. Even the members of the same families were different. In one scenario that was told, the dad was a vole, the mom a badger, and son a bear! This is the first book I've read in that sense.
A few dislikes, there were !any grammar mistakes. Not sooooo many it took away from the story, but enough it left an impression. Another was the lead up to the "romance" between Danil and Hafryn. I got the impression early on that Hafryn has feelings for Danil. I was waiting for it to be revealed they were mates. But it never was. Maybe in the next book it will, or maybe that's not even a thing in this world and Hafryn just had a crush on Danil. Also there was only one scene that hinted at sex, but not even a kiss was written in. Now I'm not saying I need my books so loaded down with sex, but to not even witness a kiss, or fade to black scene, was disappointing. Hopefully more is written out in a bit more detail in book 2. All in all, I really enjoyed this new world. I'm excited to see the growth of Danil as the Guardian on the next book, and hopefully more growth in the romance department!
Great story with strong characters an a solid procession to the plot. The action starts pretty quickly and maintains throughout the book without causing fatigue. I knew from the first page that I was going to enjoy reading this, and I can't wait for part 2!
Good read and not what I expected... read it with the kindle unlimited and then bought it because I liked it
A great series starter and a great addition to the fantasy genre. An enjoyable read from start to finish. I can't wait to read the next book in the series.
So once I began to read Messenger, I simply could not put it down. As I sat at work, I found my mind drifting back to it, anxiously wondering what would happen to Danil. The author creates such a rich vivid world, with characters that I couldn't help but invest in and welcome into my life. I love that the deadlands feels like a fully developed character in itself, thrumming with an energy that comes alive and off the pages and that if you turn your head just so and lean in, you could hear it whisper its secrets to you.
