Tevanon and Kensic: Turlot by Tyson Clark -- Book Tour Review + Giveaway

About the Book

Upon the shores of the Laughley Sea, in the shadows of the jagged Northland Mountains and not so far south as the blistering Aronee Desert, there exists a land of lush forests and golden plains. This land is known as Lynsid, a once great nation that has suffered through more than a decade of demoralizing wars. The brothers Tevanon and Kensic were born to Lynsid like their parents and grandparents before them. They know no other life and have never been outside the borders of their homeland. Lynsid, however, is on the verge of collapse and rumors of a Vlagen invasion spur a mass migration. At first, the brothers have no intention of leaving their birthplace, but soon enough they have no choice and find themselves on the trail to a land called Turlot where their Great Uncle Welksley resides.

At just thirteen-years-old, Tevanon is already highly skilled in swordsmanship, and his nine-year-old brother Kensic is mentally gifted. These attributes are useful, but the journey to Turlot will test not only their brawn and brains, but also their faith and tactfulness. The brothers learn quickly the world is filled with endless adversity. Treachery is in plain sight, evil sorcery is silently stirring, and an immortal army is lying in wait! If the brothers wish to survive, they must be vigilant, they must be brave, and they must believe in themselves. ​

Review

​Tevanon and Kensic: Turlot, written by Tyson Clarke, is about two brothers whose family was killed during an invasion of their homeland and their adventure as they travel across the war-torn continent to find their Uncle Welksley in Turlot.  The exploit in this story is fun, as well as has many engaging and like-able characters.  This story has a bit of violence, but is not overly graphic, but I would recommend it older teen readers.
