LOVE LOVE LOVE IT
Wow. What a unique and captivating tale! The action and suspense had me hooked. I loved the humility of the main character and his growth story. It has an altruistic tone to the entire story and a constant suspense as to when the first wizard will appear.It kept me reading like rare other stories. I fully recommend you give this one a shot!

Jeffrey L. Kohanek writes an epic world building wizardry tale with The First Wizard.
In The First Wizard, the reader is introduced to brothers, Ian and Vic, who are living a simple life, and maybe having that hope for adventure, but that all changes when their village is attacked, and they are taken as slaves. The story starts out a bit slow, but in this case, it is fitting for this story. The reader needs to know about the races of magic, and the world that Ian and Vic live in. It is also a long read, but it is worth it. Imagine being taken as slaves just so someone can dominate you. There is great growth in the world, and the characters, through out the story, and the focus is on the world of magic, the world people live in, and how the First Wizard comes to be. I see that this is a first book in a series, so I do look forward to reading the sequel to this. If you love or even like Epic Fantasies, this is the book you want to read. The author has a grand imagination, and not just for the writing, but the world he takes the reader to. I am a fan of Jeffrey L. Kohanek and want to read whatever this author writes. A reader can get lost in the story, and for this story, that’s a good thing. Sometimes you have to look around and see where you are before diving back into the story. The reader just embarks on a superb journey. If you don’t believe in Wizards or magic, this book will make you think about that. The First Wizard is a definite recommendation by Amy’s Bookshelf Reviews. I read this book to give my unbiased and honest review. Amy’s Bookshelf Reviews recommends that anyone who reads this book, to also write a review.

No endless filler
It’s been a long time since I’ve awarded a five star rating so many books these days just boost the word count with pointless descriptions and basic lowest common denominator reading levels.The story is strong, the lands seem realistic and characters are individually thought out. The book is a first of series yet stands on its own leading hints to future storylines and a much needed maturity as so many new books all seem to be geared at a fifth grade reading level.

A Great Adventure
ABelievable tale of intrigue, war and seemingly impossible achievements. A very good read with high action. The heroes begin as real people with various limitations that mold their capabilities overcoming their own limitations as well as their enemies. This book leaves one at a loss for its end leaves one missing the friends gained within its pages. I look forward to the next book!

Well Written, But
Although well written and a good plot, the plot is a little too transparent. You know early on that our hero is special, despite his fragile physicality. It is just a matter of time before he saves the day with his magic. I think this is an entertaining read, just not an age turner.

Interesting plots and characters
While JLK provides some seriously interesting topics and good quality SF, the writing style was a bit amateurish with poor word choices and at times unfathomable descriptions. Overall good but far from great.

Confusion at the start, but bare with it.
This tale began with many races, fighting for control of their world.Many plans and plots grew and plots. Battles with legendary creatures, trolls, dragons, weircats, eats.Humans , elves, dwarves seeking the saving of their people.Enjoy as I did, heroes striving to bring others down in defeat and outthink outfight outplot and show their peoples strenghts. Great start!

Good read, just don’t expect high classic fantasy
The book is a bit cliche and there really aren’t any surprises – you pretty much know what is going to happen all the way through the entire story. It almost feels like someone took an early beginner’s D&D game night and turned it into a novel. But it was still a good story and kept me entertained. I think it is worth the time to read as long as you don’t expect a timeless classic.

Damn good read
E.B. –
An MC without a shred of agency on a railroaded story makes for a tale that is far less engaging than it could be.Yes, it’s in the name of prophecy or fate, but still, it makes for a rather passive ride.Add to that the fact that it takes almost the whole book for the title-giving wizard to appear.It’s not a bad book. It just didn’t manage to grip me, and the protagonists remain a bit pale because of their lack of agency and decision-making.

Beginning of the book meandered a bit but got on a good plot track pretty quickly after a good read overall
