The Judas Blossom by Stephen Aryan
4.0
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for providing me with a free eARC in exchange for an honest review!
While I enjoyed this book, I did have trouble getting into it and the slow pace had me bored at times. It was definitely well written, and the characters were interesting and fleshed out. Unfortunately, I did notice a few typos, but I’m expecting those were fixed before it was published. Epic fantasy isn’t really my thing, so I can’t say if this is a unique story, but the non-European setting has me suspicious that it probably is. Overall, any epic fantasy readers will love this, and even though this wasn’t my favourite book, I’d still be interested in the sequel.
