Ron is having some pretty weird days. Today is one of them. While in class a serious storm, complete with blue white lightening and ear-blasting thunder, rocks the room. As the students freak, the lights go out, but Ron realizes the scene is right out of a dream he’s had. When the lights come back on, Ron dashes to the men’s room and throws water on his face. In a flash he sees a beautiful, blond girl—her face superimposed over his. He blinks again and sees only his own face in the mirror. But it isn’t until Ron gets a roommate, Kerry, that things really get crazy weird. It seems that Kerry is a guardian of the gateway to his world and he’s been assigned to protect the Americas. Even as he tries to absorb everything, Ron knows he’ll help his new friend fight the enemy, but how could he have known the enemy would be Zombies, Ghouls and other assorted creatures? Then, the unimaginable happens and sharing takes on a whole new meaning!
Sword The Joining Sword series Book 1 eBook Martin C Sharlow
As is usual, I received this book for nothing but will candidly review it anyway. Thanks to the author and LibraryThing for providing it.In this story we have a modernized bildungsroman as a nerd addicted to computer games discovers that there are more exciting aspects to life than what can be found on a video monitor. Ghouls, zombies and sword-carrying maidens ensue in short order and suddenly his keyboard seems like an empty shadow by comparison.
On the positive side, Sharlow has provided for us the kernel of an innovative and engrossing tale. His characters are relatable to this potential audience and he does a good job of fleshing them out. One really does feel for his protagonist as he struggles to figure out first, what in the world is going on around him, and secondly what to do about it. There's great potential in the storyline...
... but the execution is at times startlingly poor. The numerous typographical and grammatical errors are distracting and the writing is sometimes clumsy and ill-constructed. Characters often end up in situations that are non-sensical with irrational emotions and display inconsistent behavior. In short, the book needs a good editor or at least a good proofreading.
In summary, "Sword: The Joining" while at times a bit cliche, has its heart in the right place. There's great potential but it needs some significant clean up. Well worth the $.99 list price on Kindle but I'd be hard pressed to recommend it at any higher price point.

Sword The Joining Sword series Book 1 eBook Martin C Sharlow Reviews
This story has the potential to be a good series. The first installment was interesting. It was a little difficult for me to grasp the concept. I had to go back and reread some passages at times. Once the full story was explained, it was easier to understand. I'll be on the lookout for the sequel.
This is a quick read. The characters are believable, the situation they find themselves in is humorous. Ron is a traditional nerd who finds himself pulled out of his comfortable life and thrust into a hero role. Kerry is, well Kerry. I look forward to finding out how the Joining affects the characters.
The only critique I have is that although set in a college atmosphere, the way the structure of the schooling and classes, felt somewhat high school. Perhaps it has been so long since I was in college, maybe I am out of date. Or a small college atmosphere? Whatever it is, this still is a fun read. Dialogue is good and humorous too.
