I read this because of the bad review. The book was not as complicated as I feared. Well done. I look forward to reading more of this authors work.

I did not think that I was going to like this book. It started out a it slow and seemed like a period piece at first and then.....it totally takes on a whole new twist capitavating the reader into the stroyline with plenty of action and interesting characters tht draw you in deeper. The end of the book leaves you craving for more! You will not be able to resist this series!

i got the first book for free as a demonstration of the author's writting. since i had never heard of the author before my expectations were rather low. however i was pleasantly surprised by it. the female lead is rude, mean, selfish which is very different. sabre is more complex, we see him struggle with what it means to be a human, not to mention that the whole set up is rather interesting; an advanced alien landing in a world that has been reverted to its dark ages. all in all i really enjoyed it and have already purchased the sequel :)

The queen is irritating and deserves the horrible fate the hero saves her from repeatedly. The hero is not realistic because of the background imposed on him by the author. This could have been a much better story, however is still worth the price.

I guess I am hooked on the Chronicals. This is a good, entertaining SciFi/Fantasy book. I would not put it up there with the greats, but I enjoyed the story and found it plausible. I enjoyed the first book, although I really am starting to despise the queen- such a spoiled brat at 17. The problems she gets the two of them into. I find it hard to believe that the cyber, when free, is actually a good guy. I would expect him to have all sorts of mental issues considering what he went through. And I also find it silly that he allows the queen to keep getting them both into trouble. But we know the cyber is exerting influence. It is a good premise and I like the way the characters roll out. This is my first ebook and I enjoyed being able to pull it out to read at my convenience- the plot kept me coming back for more.
I would recommend the book and think it could result in interesting discussions regarding the characters actions. I do think the author has an opportunity to really take this far and hope I see that in the next few issues. For example, I would like to see Sabre escape the backroads and get into a modern world, see reprecussions from the homeworld, more abilities, etc. She could really have several subplots going with this one. So- I am expecting a lot with the next few books.

3.3 in all honesty. I'm not sure with the plethora of good books out there it's worth continuing this series but this one was free so read it for yourself.

So here I am, clearly in the middle of a story, hero in danger, plot line unresolved, and this stinker says to buy the next book if you want to read the ending! Shame on you Southwell for the cheap shot.

I got this ebook for free and was pleasently suprised. It's an easy read full of action that kept my interest the whole way through. Im eagerly reading the rest of the series and will absolutely explore other titles by this author.

This novel is just weirdly written and non-engaging. The premise is very hard to believe, and the actions of the characters do not make sense. I really enjoyed some of this author's other work, but this seems like it was written by someone else entirely. Don't waste your time even though it is free.

I've recently become a fan of T C Southwell by reading The Queen's Bade. I read this book and I liked it. However, the Queen is extremely annoying. I was always hoping Sabre would just forget about her. She is one of the most annoying characters that I have come across. On the other side of the coin: Bravo T C Southwell for making me get riled up over a character! I recommend reading the book and the heroine is a necessary, unfortunately, part of the book.
Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.The book is a very good example of the way a series needs to be. The author has laid out the background for it and leaves no questions about the characters. I was grabbed with in the first chapters and I am looking forward to following the series. I am also reading several othe r of the author's books and all are excellent entertainment.

currently I'm on the fifth novel of this series so I think that says more than any long-winded review I could write. And at only $3.99 each for subsequent novels in the series, T.C. Southwell seems to be one of the few quality authors who is really working the eBook concept.

Even tho "the Queen" is so very annoying and as most c her truly not worth Sabers efforts 2 constantly save her and suffering bcause of it......by book III The Core I realized something truly deep. Saber, due 2 being held prisoner in his own body, c's things about humanity that many either never knew or forgot. Life is precious! we all can b annoying & stupid given the right circumstances. If we spent as much energy on helping, fixing, teaching & Loving as we spend complaining & finding fault -- perhaps we would b half the person Saber is & half as loyal as Tassin. Keep reading, u won' t regret it. 5 stars would have 2 had send me 2 bed 4 a couple days so don't think 4 stars isn't great.
