Advance praise for Flight of the Eternal Emperor
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars. This is the first time reading this author and I really enjoyed the book. I really liked the idea of meshing technology with “magic” it made for an interesting story. The idea of a person living for hundreds, if not millions of years through the use of magic. The Emperor is a twisted individual who torments people in hideous ways for his own enjoyment. Living for as long as he has one must grow bored of the mundane and has to use other means for enjoyment. I enjoyed the book and encourage others to read it.

James Rogers is a superb writer, a jack-of-all-trades. Over the years I’ve always enjoyed reading his short stories, never knowing if the next one will be horror or supernatural, humour or crime. His science fantasy novel, Flight of the Eternal Emperor, is an entirely gripping read, filled with fascinating characters and sharp, timely, unexpected twists. You’ll be thinking about this wonderful debut novel long after you’ve finished reading it.

James Rogers is a tremendous writer. And now he’s turned his hand to science fantasy. You’re in for an unsettling but gratifying read. Flight of the Eternal Emperor is the real deal.
