Excellent Book
This is an excellent addition to the entire series. I would recommend you start with Days Gone Bad the first book in the series, so that you do not miss anything in this terrific series. All the books are well written and have plenty of action and intrigue. This book is no exception. It is a quick read with a lot packed into it. Definitely worth a read.

Just keeps getting better
The more I read this series, the more I learn. I love that each book is a glimpse into the characters and their lives. Don't get me wrong, I love Damian! But, it's nice to read about some of the behind the scenes type of stuff. I do miss Damian though. I really hope things turn out well for him. I'm ready to start the next installment!

Wow. This might be the thirteenth book, but if possible, each one gets better. Once I started, I was hopelessly addicted. Dont miss out.

More action plus background on characters in the Vesik series.
This book gives you the action that you expect from the Vesik series as Ward goes to get the Rune. It is the last item that is needed for Zola and her team to keep Samantha and Vicki safe and hopefully rescue Damien. There are traps and dangers that keep you on the edge of your seat as Ward tries to retrieve the Rune and a shocking surprise.
I received an advanced reader's copy from the author. I am voluntarily reviewing this book.

I am constantly amazed at the storytelling by this author. Hes quite good at laying a foundation with great action and wonderful characters. In this one we find out more about what happened in the past which has ramifications on the present. I am happy (get it, happy? LOL!) to have found out more about Ward, Happy, and the Old Man. I think there are some surprises coming and I cant wait to see whats going to happen next. This is a must-read novella, and they are all a wonderful way to pass the

It just keeps getting better!
This is my favorite series. in this book, I really enjoyed getting a glimpse into Ward's story and personality. Overall, the story just keeps building. I thought it would be easier with a book coming out each month, but instead, it gets harder to wait as the story moves quickly to some major events. I miss Damien, but I love hearing from the rest of the crew. Definitely start at the beginning on this series. You wouldn't want to miss the fun or the sarcasm. Enjoy!

I liked The Book of the Rune because we got to spend time with some of the Vesik series' "older" kick-butt heroes that we haven't heard from in a while. They've still got it and are willing to put it all on the line for their loved ones. This one also alludes there may be even more ominous plans in the works than they can imagine. Yikes! This is a quick, fun read.
For those who want to know: This one has a little language, a lot of violence but no sex.

Vesik and the Misfits Rule!
Getting a look into the pasts of so many of the Vesik crew is awesome! The loyality, love and courage is truly amazing! There is a lot of heartbreak too, but such is the nature of war, supernatural or not. Eric has us all tied up in the past, present and futures of our heroes and I sure hope Team Vesik emerge victorious!

Love these short books featuring one of Damians friends. Certain that there will be sadness and death ahead, but hopefully will end with Nudd being one of the dead.

The Book of Runes is the thirteenth book in the Vesick series. This book should not be read as a standalone. It is a short book that features Ward. There is violence and use of magic. I really enjoy these stories about the other series characters.
Once again Eric Asher knocks it outta the park. A great fun read for a wild ride of action/emotions. If you haven't read any Vesik ..... 13 books is a nice binge read. :)
Loved it!
I can't wait until I can see where Eric is going with everyone's story on the way to saving Damian...On to the Burning Lands.

This series just keeps getting better and better! Wards book answers some questions but raises new ones. It was good seeing Edgar in full Mage Solis mode again and catching up with Parks and Casper.
