NEWLY RE-EDITED ... In 5093 ED Captain Greybeard set sail from Avalon in search of fabled Dorian’s Purse, said to hold secrets of immortality and divine ascension. His vessel was built from an ancient elvin design, superior to any known ship at sea, and christened the Kelshinua. Greybeard also had maps not seen by any sailor of the time. The word is he even breeched the dreaded V’Pohra Tanzhi.
But before the quest could be completed, the ship went down in the turbulent waters of Torsham’s Vault. As the vessel sank, Greybeard thrust the treasured maps into Liam’s hands and threw him overboard. Liam, son of Greybeard’s only known child, spent twenty years seeking the purse, but failed. With no child of his own, he passed the maps to his sister’s adopted son, Jann Raul Jha’Ley.
But who is Jann Raul, really? Does he have what it takes to pursue and solve a riddle thousands of years old? What of his growing obsession to sail around the world, a venture long believed to be impossible? And what is the connection with the half-elf who calls himself Timber Wolf?
Winds of Torsham is not a sequel, but a Companion Novel to Call of the Wolf. Written in the same 1st person style by Timber Wolf, Winds of Torsham gives the reader critical insights of events, places, creatures and characters necessary to understand as the exploits of Timber Wolf & Company unfold. As well as new characters, we learn more of old ones see Lath in her most glorious fight; meet U’Lahna, who does not know she has a brother; see Timber Wolf in his years as Coliseum Champion and what of his relationship with Edgarfield; learn more of Lushandri; meet the last survivor of The Kelshinua, or is he; follow Jann Raul Jha’Ley, the most acclaimed captain upon the sea, and the crew of the VNS Clarise; and what of the Great Alignment?
J P Nelson again delivers with excellent character interaction and development, new species and fresh take on old ones, rich visual detail and an old world feel, fast swashbuckling action, ancient ruins, all centered around an intricate and well thought out continuing story arc.
Winds of Torsham is a must-have for those following the Kohrinju Tai Saga.
Winds of Torsham The Kohrinju Tai Saga Book 2 eBook J P Nelson
I will confess that I was a little surprised when I saw that he had switched his main character-but ALL of the great writers (Tolkien, Anthony, Martin) have told entire sagas from different points of view-this creates a rich background tapestry that becomes as much of the tale as the story itself.Once I adjusted to this different point of view it becomes apparent that Nelson is not just going to create a story, he is creating entire realities! My only complaint might be that he is so rich in detail and description that it took a few minutes to come back to the real world after putting the book down! I suspect that Timber Wolf (from the first book in the series "Call of the Wolf" Call of the Wolf (The Kohrinju Tai Saga Book 1)) is going to be making an appearance again in the future...
In a world that seems dead set on "30 second sound bites" and "complete resolution before the commercial break" entertainment it is unbelievably refreshing (and rare!) to have come across one of the genuine storytellers; one of the greats who can actually make you see and feel the characters as opposed to being spoon-fed lukewarm anecdotes. Make no mistake; you are going to have to totally immerse yourself the various worlds that make up this reality-don't be surprised if you have a little difficulty coming back.
It is obvious that this series is set on building to a very high plateau-all I can say is to grab on with both hands and hang on for dear life!

Winds of Torsham The Kohrinju Tai Saga Book 2 eBook J P Nelson Reviews
I'm on team water boy
I mostly enjoyed the first novel. occasionally a little long winded, but this one was pretty miserable for me. I tried to get into it but didnt have any interest. I basically skipped to the Timber Wolf sections and read the last few chapters when all finally came together. Those were good.
Very interesting story. Liked Jann Raul, Jha'Ley and all the other new characters and plot twists. Can't wait to see how the next book ties everything together with Timber Wolf. Enjoyed the book from cover to cover.
I greatly enjoyed both this book and the first in the series. The detail created by this author is staggering, in a good way. I can't wait to learn more about this world and the worlds that came before.
Planning on reading this in the Fall. the first book was great! the author has a brilliant mind. I would encourage those who haven't had the pleasure to read J.P.'s books. You won't regret it. Enjoy!
I enjoyed the book, but in my opinion it spent to much time on introducing new characters and worldbuilding and not enough on TW. What made the first book so great, was to follow his journey and getting to know him and see him grow. When i started this book i assumed we would get to read more about him, but 80% of the book introduced other characters etc.. While i liked it i would have enjoyed a 50/50 split more. Still the series is fun to read, but intdocuing new main characters in a second book is a gamble.
I really loved the first book, Call of the Wolf, and i really wanted to love this book just as much. I didn't like it nearly as much but i think that it is actually my fault and not the authors. My expectations were just much different than what really happens in book 2. The problem is that I was expecting the book to pick up right after where the first book ended. I was also expecting Timber Wolf to be the main character again. Unfortunately the books main character is Jha'Ley, who was introduced at the end of book one. Now don't get me wrong, he's a cool character, but he's not Komain/Timber Wolf. Winds of Torsham doesn't actually catch up to where the first book ended until the last few chapters of this book. There are some Timber Wolf scenes that take place at the time period of book 1 where he is a fighter/slave again. The problem i had was that every page i was reading I was hoping that we would catch up to where TW and Jha'Ley meet so we could get on with it. And it just kept not happening so instead of enjoying what was probably a good story, i just could not get into it. It's tough to enjoy a book when every page you are saying to yourself "come on already!" That's why I said earlier that it wasn't the authors fault that i didn't like it as much. I liked Timber Wolf too much and loved that he was the total focus of the first book and expected that to continue. I'm going to read the book again in a few weeks and I think I might really like it more now that I know what to expect.
There is some hope at the end of Winds of Torsham that the focus will shift back to Timber Wolf in book 3. I really hope that happens because he is too good of a character for him to be in the background. There have been a few series that i ended up quitting because of this. Like Peter V Bretts Demon Cycle. In book one he introduced Arlen, who was an amazing character but in later books is in it so much less. I really hope this doesn't happen here. I don't think it will though and I'm still very excited for book 3. I hope that people read this review before going into this book because i truly believe you will like the book more if you know going in that Timber Wolf isn't the main character.
