Vivid imagery and facinating characters

Reviewed in the United States on 26 September 2020

THE UNFETTERED CHILD is a fascinating read packed with magic, elves, and memorable characters.

After her mother is captured by elves, young Samara travel across a vivid, colorful, imaginary landscape, guided by an internal voice, which both enlightens and frightens. She is taught to release an inner power, and she must do so to save her tribe and rescue her mother. Samara is one you grow to adore and root for.

It's both a great YA novel and adult dark fantasy. It is said, "A children's story that can only be enjoyed by children isn't a good children's story in the slightest." Well, that is certainly true with THE UNFETTERED CHILD. The novel says a lot about family values and love. Author Michael C. Sahd has a great knack for story-telling, weaving in a diverse cast of characters with many plot surprises. Frankly, the book was addicting.

A great read for D&D fans.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 November 2020

Do you like Dungeons & Dragons? The Unfettered Child reads like a D&D campaign, drawing upon barbarians, mages, clerics and liches, woven with some original ideas by the author. The characterisation is on the whole clear, bound by fantasy stereotypes, but liberated by Sahd's imagination. The plot is driven by character motivations and feels mostly believable. At other times, one steps from a sense of realness to feeling as if one is reading some kind of game.

Those who like D&D-based novels will derive most enjoyment from The Unfettered Child. Sahd handles the spells and game mechanics well enough. There are enough original elements to entertain most other fantasy buffs, and make the plot feel fresh and original.

I personally would like to see the D&D concepts of mage's memorising spells, or barbarians raging, made into something more thoughtful and based on Sahd's own magic-world mechanics. Sahd hasn't quite left the womb of his D&D upbringing, and written something wholly original. Saying that, when he shines, he shines brightly, and captures well scenery and characters, though battle scenes seem a little rushed, or perhaps complex.

In all, I enjoyed reading this story, so awarded it five stars. The book is a good read for any fantasy lover, but especially to those who are fans of D&D.

A New/Different Take on the Fantasy Genre

Reviewed in the United States on 1 October 2019

Verified Purchase

If you are looking for a feel good fantasy novel, this book is not it. It is dark and, at times, violent. That said, this book masterfully pulls readers into a world of magic, turning their expectations on their heads. It's a ride I'm glad I went on. It is best to not go into this book with preconceived notions of how "sanitized" magic should be manifested in a book. Rather, you should just enjoy the ride. While this is a stand alone book, it would lend itself well to a sequel should the author choose to expand the story line further. I would certainly read books by this author again.
