Review post for Felix Faust...





Washington, 21 May, 2014 - The Arcane Insurrection Continues
Dexter Morgenstern, author of “Felix Faust” has announced the release of a sequel. In “Felix Faust,” readers were introduced to an arrogant, intelligent young-adult, gifted with psychic abilities that attract a few friends and many foes, many of whom share Felix’s fundamental abilities.
In the contemporaneous sequel, which is scheduled for release in summer 2014, readers are set to be introduced to Byron Bishop, a psychic ex-convict with a ghostlike companion, who incidentally draws attention from foes before finding many friends. This places him on the opposite side of the playing field as Felix, and seeks to answer several questions about the previous book, while introducing new ones.
Byron is desperate to find a way onto the good side, but Baron isn’t, so how does the situation play out when tensions rise, and they grow closer to combating each other? Find out in the latest instalment of The Arcane Insurrection.
Dexter Morgenstern has already received numerous positive feedbacks for his debut novel.
One reader said: “From tragedies, deaths, kidnappings, daring rescues, powerful enemies and allies the book keeps you reading eager to know what is going to happen next.
I can't wait to find out more about the other characters and just see where the story will lead in the next book.
Another said: “...Morgenstern has a great handle of plot and keeping the pace going, and you'll hardly ever encounter a dull moment in this book. His magic system is well thought out and is very in depth, and he does a great job explaining the intricacies instead of just walking over it, which makes the battles -- when everything finally comes together -- feel all the more real.

The Arcane Insurrection: Felix Faust
Blurb:“Felix Faust is a nineteen-year-old semi-genius who has just been accepted into a prestigious college. He discovered telekinesis at an early age and has used it discreetly for his own entertainment. Felix finds himself displeased and malcontent with everything he encounters in the school, except for one student. This other student shares Felix’s gift, and is much stronger, capable of abilities Felix never thought possible. Now a new door opens for Felix as he is mentored and develops his psychic abilities, but this door also brings danger as malevolent forces set their eyes upon him. Tragedy and destruction follow Felix, leaving him no choice but to continue growing and fight back, but danger follows him every step of the way, and failure means death...”

The Arcane Insurrection: Byron Bishop:
Blurb:“Vilified by the community as a notorious delinquent, Byron has spent his best years as a petty criminal in order to provide for himself. He isn’t alone, however… Byron has a secret companion who acts as a second conscience, a second set of eyes, and a second pair of hands. He has Baron, whom he can only describe as a brother, a twin, and a ghost. With Baron’s help, Byron joins a criminal syndicate, which he sees as the first step toward a better life, but he is soon in over his head when a sinister group of assassins with their own supernatural gifts encounters and forcibly recruits him. With the body-count rising, Byron desperately tries to find a way out, but he and Baron don’t always see eye-to-eye. How can Byron hope to escape and wash the blood from his hands, when the loyalty of his own conscience is compromised?

  I found this story, Felix Faust  (The Arcane Insurrection) by Dexter Morgenstern a fascinating read, just the kind of book I like to review and I enjoyed reading it very much. Felix Faust is a gifted university student, arrogant and rude but with the extraordinary power of telekinesis. The author, Dexter Morgenstern, is an extremely eloquent writer, with an interesting vocabulary. His powers of description are varied and right from the first page you quickly climb inside the main character, Felix Faust's head. This book is a fascinating insight into the world of psychic abilities, albeit from the author's perspective. Before too long, Felix realises that he's not half as clever as he thinks he is, when he meets someone who is far cleverer than he and has to quickly learn how to first protect himself and then challenge his opponent. His learning curve is fascinating and you could be forgiven for thinking that maybe the author is psychic from the detailed descriptions of the main character's progress. A fast paced and thrilling psychic adventure which will leave you breathless and very impressed. I know I was. Well plotted with excellent characterisation combined with excruciating tension so visual, it is as if you are watching it in real time. It reminded me of those action films that never let your attention wander for fear of missing a valuable piece of the action, leaving you impressed but breathless. The author, Dexter Morgenstern is to be applauded for his vivid imagination in the creation of this masterpiece.
  I will be posting again, quite soon, but I am still having all kinds of technical problems with this blessed computer...See you soon (I hope!) Jaye
