Rebellion is the second book in The Kingdom series by Tyler Svec. Although the war between the Lucerine-led Alliance and Chrystar's Kingdom continues, Roy Van Doren and his wife Abigail enjoy time together in their cabin in the Appalachian Mountains. But soon, Jonathan brings along with him other members of the A-Team, while Roy's brother Geoffrey inadvertently enters the room that takes him to the other world, where he comes across Alexander and Savannah. Meanwhile, people from Roy's world have been taken as captives by the Hentarian Knights. Additionally, Cyrus is secretly launching a rebellion among the Alliance's forces. As Lucerine sets out to spread his dominion over both worlds, Roy, his friends, and his newfound allies are the only ones standing in his way. But now, one of their own is missing.
Jam-packed with action, romance, and lore, Rebellion is a treat for portal fantasy lovers. Tyler Svec's worldbuilding is fantastic. The author has crafted a lively world full of diverse locations, inner-world politics, and vibrant characters with their own agency. Roy and his A-Team are the main heroes of the story, but even secondary characters like Christina, Cyrus, and Geoffrey have so much going on in their story arcs. It makes the narrative immersive and all the more enjoyable for the reader. The plot is evenly paced and features well-placed twists and turns that keep readers hooked until the end. The narrative ends on a cliffhanger, which I think will be resolved in the next installment. I am very much looking forward to reading that. In conclusion, this series is tailor-made for young adult fantasy readers.
