Ever wish you hadn’t chased your giant slobbering Saint Bernard Max through the portal? Wished you weren’t named in the Prophecy? Wish it wasn’t up to you to save the world… again?

Book two starts off with a bang, right where book one left off and rockets upwards toward the climax. With more from the same beloved characters, this story is packed with action, suspense, and ample laughs, delivering on its promise to provide another, even more exciting and engaging adventure!

Book two in the epic trilogy delivers fun for the entire family! Live alongside Tom and his friends as the stakes are raised and the tension mounts, interspersed with timely and well-earned outbursts of laughter. The second book propels our heroes and the reader to new heights where the kids must ‘find the artifact’ before time runs out. In doing so, they’ve got to survive freak snowstorms, active volcanoes, deadly giant ice worms, a shape-shifting demon, a whacked fairy queen, the terrifying cave of nightmares, plus a bungling troll and ogre, and of course, an evil wizard! Except for the occasional aid from some unlikely sources: a mischievous gremlin, a ferocious dragon, and even a troll, the kids must accomplish this monumental task by themselves.

The Award-Winning series continues with book two: “Thomas Holland in the Realm of the Ogres.” Continue the adventure! Purchase it now.

Review

The second volume of author K. M. Doherty's magical fantasy Thomas Holland series for young readers, (as well as the First Place Winner of the 2017 Writer's Digest Self-Published Book Awards) "Thomas Holland in the Realm of the Ogres" is a deftly crafted, impressively original, consistently entertaining, highly recommended addition to school and community library collections. ~Midwest Book Review - Apr 2018 issue
This author has an excellent writing voice and even uses deep point of view which is a master skill. His characters are likable and make you want to turn the page instead of doing your chores. This author has great description skills, and he doesn't overuse them by telling the reader everything about the setting in the first paragraph-another master skill. ~Judge, 25th Annual Writer's Digest Self-Published Book Awards
The story's unshakable momentum takes the young protagonist, etal., through the unnerving Cave of Dreams, complete with a riddle and five tunnels to choose from, and the deceptively peaceful Realm of Fairie. Excitement, too, is elevated, knowing the barrier's power is on the verge of expiring. Doherty's breezy prose speeds through exposition, so readers new to the series won't be lost--or bored.

Familiar creatures and an other-world setting, a persistently fun tale chock-full of energy.
~KIRKUS

From the Back Cover

Book II in the Thomas Holland series. In the first book Tom and his friends restored the barrier - but that was only a temporary fix. Now they must find a permanent solution, the artifact, which will protect Elfhaven for a thousand years and restore the Citadel's power to a level so that Tom and his mom can safely return home to Earth. To find the artifact they are forced to embark on a dangerous quest through the deadly Demon Forest, cross the raging Icebain River, and solve the riddle of the Cave of Nightmares. On their desperate journey they must climb an active volcano past scalding geysers, boiling mudpots, and deadly giant ice-worms. Standing in their way are a bungling troll and ogre, a shape-shifting demon, and a demented fairy queen. With gremlins and wizards in hot pursuit only Tom's scientific knowledge and the use of light and dark magic can save them. Did I mention dragons?

Author K. M. Doherty says, "I love to read fantasy and science fiction. For fantasy, the more dragons, trolls, ogres, treachery, wizards, magic, and epic battles, the better. My favorites are Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Percy Jackson, Fablehaven, the Bartimaeus Trilogy, and the Shannara series. For sci-fi I love Startide Rising, Star Wars, Dr Who, the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, and anything to do with robots. I believe that for magical fantasies, anything goes, as long as the author is consistent with their laws of magic. For sci-fi the physics must be correct or at least based on current theories. The premise for my own magical fantasy series is actually based on String Theory as it relates to Parallel Universes."

5.0 out of 5 stars Flashlight under the covers excitement
Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2016

Doherty’s villains and heroes, evoke memories of the books that held me captive when I began to read for the excitement of the story. Elfhaven is filled with jaw dropping ogres, trolls, evil magicians and dragons, with descriptions that leap from the page demanding that flashlight under the covers response. Tom, Avani, Goban, and Kiran are every child in their hopes and dreams.

King Dakshi is on his way to retrieve the artifact that will maintain the energy barrier that is all that protects Elfhaven from the Ogres and Trolls who are camped outside its walls. When Tom and his Elfhaven friends learn that the king has been betrayed and is headed for a trap, they convince the ghost librarian to lead them through the demon forest, the only way to reach him in time.

All of us are represented by these young heroes, both in our aspirations and our idiosyncrasies. In the book, these young protagonists run into beauty and darkness, into faeries who want them to stay with them forever, and dark magicians like Naagesh, who is determined to enslave them. Finally we meet dragons, an old race of powerful beings, who are not so easily convinced to help Tom and his friends. Like all really memorable heroes, Tom could never surmount the forces against him by himself, and yet without his human insights and scientific knowledge, the kingdom of Elfhaven will be overrun by the Ogres, perhaps dousing the magical beauty that is Elfhaven forever.

I was looking for an exciting book for my grandson. Found it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exciting and very entertaining writing

Supposedly written for young adults. That I guess is true but not written in stone. K.M.'s writing has found a place in my 70 year old heart. Great writing I feel has no age limit. When a well written story is exciting and entertaining there is no age limit! I look forward to hopefully more than 3 books in the Thomas Holland series. Well exciting and loveable charactors should live on and on and continue to entertain. Think how The Harry Potter Series took off and still lives on.

The adventures continue in this, the second volume of the Thomas Holland series. Tom discovers glaciers, that he himself can wield magic in Elfhaven's world, and even....well, you'd best read it for yourself. K.M.Doherty's brilliant sojourns into sci-fi/fantasy with solid references to physics<!> hits all the marks in this tome, and I cannot wait to read volume 3! A++ BRAVO!!! READ THESE BOOKS!!! (you're welcome, in advance!)

This was a great follow up to the first book. I had been excitedly looking forward to it and it was everything I hoped it would be! I especially liked the dragon character, and some of the twists and turns in the story were so unexpected and exciting. The epilogue definitely set up something interesting for the next story!
