A rolling tremor passes through the land of Uton signaling the return of long absent magic as well as an ancient evil. Ryson Acumen, purebred delver, learns the Sphere of Ingar, a talisman that captured all magical energy long ago, is free from its tomb in Sanctum Mountain. As violent, evil creatures return to shred every notion of reality, the sphere gains awareness and chooses to spew corrupted magical power to obliterate all life.
The sphere must be destroyed but it rests within Sanctum, a hollow mountain with a single path to its center. The way remains defended by devices crafted long ago, forged by members of each race to thwart entry into the inner core. Those that wish to defeat the sphere must not only overcome these barriers, they must conquer the mistrust which has flourished during the long period of separation. Human, elf, dwarf, algor and delver must reunite to face the secrets of the ages that once undone will change their lives forever.

I liked the story line about humans and "delvers" living together. When a threat appears which could wipe them out they find there are 3 other races involved - dwarves, algors and elves.The main character, Ryson Acumen, is a delver. He is an explorer with a highly developed sense of curiosity along with smelling, sight and speedy movement. Even after reading the whole book I still don't have a clear picture of what he looks like although a human female is his love so I would guess very close to human.
This would have been a great book except for some minor items like spelling and word usage that detract from the story. Mostly the errors can be ignored but once in a while they can confuse.
The major flaw was too much introspection. In more than a couple of places the characters go back and forth, and back, and forth and back forth, just beating the subject to death. Then there are the times that every single thought is expressed. Gets one to wondering if this is just filler to make the book longer.
Although I found the story line to be unique enough and the main character Ryson the delver delightful I would have to give this book a rating of 3 stars.
If you would like to read a unique story with some familiar faces and new ones included, and don't mind the slow spots, the grammer and spelling errors, then you should get this book.

Delver Magic Book I Sanctum Breach edition by Jeff Inlo Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
This novel starts out sounding like a walk through of a D&D adventure. A little bland and forced with little character depth or development. It was good bed time reading; could seldom stay awake for the entire chapter. It did pick up toward the end; the characters finally began to take on some life. Some spelling and grammar errors, not too distracting. I'll read the next to see if the quality of the character development continues to improve. I'd have been pretty disappointed had I paid for the book, but for free reading to relax the mind it fits the bill.
This book is slow. The pacing is slow, the action is slow, even the wording is slow. The author takes the stance that why use ten words to describe something when he can use thirty. This would not matter if the thirty words chosen invoked a sense of wonder or beauty, but instead they are simply as interesting as mashed peas.
So, the basic premise of the book is that main character uncovers a ring under a mountain - I mean a sphere buried in the mountain. He meets with an wise elder named Gandalf - I mean Mappel - who tells him to gather a fellowship and meet in Rivendell - sorry Connel. Where they shall journey to the mountain and cast the sphere back into the fires - well destroy it after passing some tests. I am sure the story seems familiar, but I just cannot place where I read it before.
All kidding aside this book is one dull read. I forced myself to get through it, but it was it was a difficult book to convince myself to pick up. The number of positive reviews may cause me to begin to read book 2 in the hopes that it improves. There is an interesting story here to be told, but Jeff Inlo is not an interesting storyteller.
I bought this for my because of the price. Finally got around to reading it and it didn't start out with a bang for me. It was as if the author wanted us to know every single nuance of what everyone was thinking and explaining every idea to all the other characters. This got on my never a little bit, and frankly was put off and found myself putting the book down a lot. Then as I kept with it, the story got a little better as the action kicked in, as when Ryson found himself battling a corpse, then I started getting more interested. By the time I reached the midway part of the book, I found myself reading for longer periods of time. The story was slow to get started but after that, flowed nicely. The author's character development was enough to start with and kept going as the story moved along.
I really think this should have cost more in comparison to the entertainment value. I have downloaded the other 3 in the series and hope their takeoff is a little faster, but not worried as they will definitely be worth the money spent.
I have to agree with others in the overall assessment of this book. The general premise and characters are basically interesting. The actual writing is a bit rough. I had trouble getting into the book. And it just didn't really flow for me. Some authors can sweep you along to where you are just there, experiencing the book more than just reading it as an outsider. This was not one of those experiences. As someone else said - Mr. Inlo could use an editor, or at least proofreader. There was one stretch of the book where the errors were close enough together that it really disrupted the flow. ("Jon" became "John" and "passed" was in place of "past" and similar things.) Many of the names also were cumbersome, for me. These things detract from the enjoyment, just like the descriptions of the other races. My brain just didn't have the tools, based on his descriptions, to paint a suitable image of an algor, for example. I like it when each character is "real" enough that I have a voice and a face in my mind as I'm reading. That didn't happen for me. (Maybe my imagination is dulling with age...) And, to echo others, it really did drag at times. I wanted to see how it concluded, but I was losing patience.
I've downloaded the other free installments in the series and will try to follow along, but I'm not sure if I'll make it PAST the second book. I'm also not sure where things will go from here. It wasn't an ending that obviously led to more. But, I'll give it a shot. I've read worse and I'm not sure I could do much better myself, so I'll keep an open mind. It's free. I wouldn't pay more than a dollar for what I've experienced so far, to be sure. Perhaps the author peruses these reviews and will use them as constructive criticism and go back to edit the problems (new editions, maybe?) or at least improve in future works.
It's a reasonable read, but not fantastic.
