Age of Myth by Michael J. Sullivan

Michael J. Sullivan is becoming a must read author for me! I love the world set up in this first book (with some familiar names if you’ve read Riyeria), the introduction of some great characters, and an interesting larger plot building in the background. TGR continues to crush the narration of Sullivan’s work and I look forward to continuing with these characters!

I own this book, so I actually ended up putting it down in favor of library books that I had to return that were on wait lists. When I did get a chance to jump into the story, I could not put it down. The relationship between Royce & Hadrian is one of my favorite in all of fiction, so there was a pretty high bar set here. [a:Michael J. Sullivan|2063919|Michael J. Sullivan|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1433443335p2/2063919.jpg] did not disappoint.

In point of fact, this has been a difficult year for me. I had lost the joy in reading. This series has given it back to me. I've not enjoyed reading anything so thoroughly in months and I cannot be more grateful to have my favorite pastime back.

I put it down for too long. I will continue but I have to start again from the beginning of the series

I found that the story wandered quite a bit, and took a long time to get anywhere. But despite this, it was a really enjoyable wander, with richly defined characters, in an immersive world. A very nice opener to a new series - will look forward to what happens next.

Notes :
Unfortunately, this was a DNF for me. Not sure if it was of how I engaged with the book (audiobook) or the writing style, but I couldn’t get hooked and I tried numerous times. The characters didn’t pique my interest. The idea of the world (gods vs human) was kind of cool, but I didn’t see much interaction- likely due to not reading the entire book. I most likely won't pick this book back up, so I am marking it as read.

Yet another family-friendly adventure by Sullivan. As enjoyable as any of the Riyria stories. Anxiously looking forward to seeing how the rest of the series unfolds.

I absolutely loved this book! Age of Myth is exactly the kind of thing that I've been looking for when it comes to adult fantasy books. I'll definitely be reading the rest of the Legends of the First Empire series. :)
