 I am blown away. This is easily going to be a top 5 series for me. A true fantasy epic. The perfect mix of character work, plot, and world building. Strongly religion driven story with a chosen one trope twisted to be five "chosen ones", and it is so well done here. There is mystery, intrigue, betrayal and, a deep, lush world with lovable characters. My only gripe is that the writing can be just a little repetitive, but not enough to take away from my enjoyment. Seriously good book and it NEEDS more recognition. Please pick this up if you love epic, dark, grim, bloody, enveloping stories.
