**This combined edition contains the first three novels of the Awakened series Awaken His Eyes, Paths of Destruction, and Hands To Make War.**
BOOK ONE On a parallel earth, in the city of Bastul, Colonel Adair Lorus disappears while investigating the death of an informant, triggering a series of events which will tear his family apart and set in motion the resolution of an ancient struggle. Kael, sentenced to death after rising up against the cruel leadership of his new step-father, is rescued from prison and trained in the arts of war by a mystical order of clerics. Excelling in every aspect of his training, Kael inwardly struggles to give himself fully to the methods of his new family, or the god they worship. Maeryn, bitter over the disappearance of her husband and supposed execution of her son, fears for her life at the hands of her newly appointed husband. Finding comfort and purpose in her unborn child, she determines to undermine his authority by reaching out to an underground social movement known as the Resistance. After being forced from his home, Kael’s former mentor, Saba, uncovers a clue to Adair’s disappearance. Sensing a connection to his own forgotten past, Saba begins an investigation which leads to the discovery of a secret military organization operating within the Orudan Empire.
BOOK TWO Returning to his home city of Bastul, Kael finds the Southern Territory of the Orudan Empire under invasion. As he races to unravel the secrecy of the enemy’s identity, he becomes entangled in a brutal conspiracy to gain control of the government. After years of collaboration with the Resistance, Maeryn coordinates the covert exodus of the entire slave population of Bastul. Along their treacherous journey to the capital city of Orud, she is faced with the pressures of leadership as she attempts to protect her daughter and ensure the survival of her companions. Saba, held captive by a mysterious military force, escapes after years of solitary confinement. Propelled by an elusive memory, he chases after the hope of rediscovering his past and learns that everyone’s future is in jeopardy. Finding himself in another world and thrust into the middle of a technologically advanced conflict, Adair struggles to make sense of his new environment and the soldiers who are protecting him.
BOOK THREE After fighting his way back from a paralyzing defeat, Kael resolves to bring an end to the enemies of the Orudan Empire. Enlisting the help of his family and most-trusted friends, he faces off against an ancient evil and embraces his destiny. As Maeryn rises through the ranks to attain a command position within the Resistance, she learns of a conspiracy in her organization and realizes the enormous resources at her disposal. Determined to set things right, she seizes control and sets a new course for the movement. Reacquainting with his closest friends, Saba pieces together the identity and motive of the enemy. Bringing his vast knowledge to bear, he collaborates with Orud’s High Council to force the enemy into the open, while waiting to reveal a secret of his own. Working to establish communications with the mysterious organization protecting him, Adair sets in motion a plan that he hopes will enable him to return to his world—and his family.
In the first trilogy of his bestselling debut series, Jason Tesar launches an epic saga that will journey from earth’s mythological past to its post-apocalyptic future, blending the genres of fantasy, sci-fi, and military/political suspense.

If you're looking for sci-fi with shades of grey, so not read this series! Unfortunately, there seems to be this assumption (for lack of a better word) that a book needs at least a sprinkle of sex in order to be good, or to sell. I get it...live, sex, etc, are a very normal part of our lives...but if I already have a normal life, why would I look for it in my escape from reality?Jason manages to weave in a brief, but lasting, love story here and there...in fact, this love story is an integral part of one of his main character's actions. He also throws in, without getting specific, a rape scene...again, necessary to a character's growth and development...but the rest of the books tell the story of a group of people, with emphasis on one character...however, this one character is extremely closely tied to the other main characters...
And, let's not forget a driving character who pops in and out, also very closely tied to the one character!!!
Confusing?? Only because I'm not naming names...
Definitely a series with reading...you have action...tons of it...with great descriptions to bring this world to life...
You have just enough romance to keep it from being solely a war book....
You have good people, who are human...complete with flaws...
You have good vs evil...
You have.........well, just read it! You won't regret it!!
Now I'm off to start the next trilogy in this series!!

Combined Edition The Awakened Books One Through Three eBook Jason Tesar Reviews
I was looking for a sci-fi/fantasy type hybrid and happened upon this series because of its price. The first chapter was pretty intriguing and then the second chapter seemed a little dry to me. I am so glad I hung on until chapter 3 because it has become a great story with great characters. I really like that the heroes and heroines are not necessarily perfect and excellent at everything they do right from the start. Too often the main character(s) are the best fighters, the best strategists, etc. I was happy to see that that was not necessarily the case with all the characters. They might become great later but it seems to come legitimately.
I enjoyed that it was not overly detailed in every little aspect. Sometimes reading about the landscape or city or battle to the nth degree is boring. I want action, adventure, intrigue and a dash of romance at a fair pace. I felt the author kept the tempo going nicely. I bought this version because it has all three books in one. It was definitely worth the price for the size! I am almost done with the book and do not look forward to the wait for the next part of the story. Keep writing, Jason, because I will definitely keep reading!
"The Awakened A Wandering Stars Novel" contains all three books in "The Awakened" trilogy by author Jason Tesar. The paperback copy is 574 pages in length while the e-edition is a 2389 Kb download.
General theme *SPOILERS* scattered below (no specific details given)
This fantasy adventure take place in the island grouping of the Orudan Empire and follows the Lorus family. Adair, father and governor of the town of Bastul; Maeryn, Adair's wife; Kael, their son and Saga, Kael's tutor.
A new governor is appointed after Adair goes missing...he is a cruel man who imposes himself on Maeryn and dispose both Kael and Saga (or so he thinks). All three book follow Maeryn, Kael and Saga over the ensuing 20 years or so, telling their tales of survival, development and eventual retribution.
Impressions
While the story had some great spots of intrigue, suspense, battles and travel, it also had some areas that were dragged out and became 'skim-able'. In general however, the trilogy held its own until the third book when Kael began to take on a Deus ex Machina aura. Unfortunately at this point, the once omnipotent 'bad guys' seemed to be dispatched with relative ease, their evil plans countered at every turn with inexplicable accuracy by Kael and his compatriots. The ending became a foregone conclusion and at the same time set the stage for an obvious sequel.
Also, there were several very good MAPS with interactive links embedded within the text. Oh, if only all fantasy books would have such luxuries included!
Conclusion
This was a good trilogy for a summer time beach or vacation read. It had an interesting basic plot and some intriguing developments. I think many readers will absolutely love this tale, because it's easy to read and it did have some great moments.
But to me, as each book progressed I had this uncomfortable feeling that the main characters were somehow, sacrosanct...they could be hurt or made to suffer, but you always knew in the end, they'd prevail. And yes, while I guess nearly all fantasy books end this way, it's just that the techniques used here made it quite obvious as to how things were going to turn out...and therein lies the difference between great, good and average writing. 3 1/2 Stars
Ray Nicholson
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I purchased the combined books after reading the free download of book one.
The story line wasn't something I expected, but as I read on became enraptured with. There are elements of the book that the author could have expanded upon, but I did enjoy being given an empty slate for my own imagination to fill in the blanks of what things looked like, as far as some of the landscape and towns. Ah, yes it might have been good for him to let us know a mansion was white stucco or beige sandstone...but his writing allowed me to form some of my own picture in my head. To that I salute him.
Some authors get so rapped up in showing us, the readers the world, places explaining things. They lose me in a hundred pages of scene setting. For some books it's needed. I don't feel it was needed in this book.
I will wait now for him to get a few books ahead, as I do hate having to wait for books to come out. Because if it's good I can read most books in a few days.
Job well done
