Blood Song
by Anthony Ryan
Okay so I read Blood Song over the weekend and totally loved it. Hardly put it down.
I love 'coming- of-age' style stories and learning about the world as our 'hero' does, I loved the wilderness/journey aspect of Vaelin learning to be a brother and all the training too. I loved the brotherhood of the boys and found Vaelin to be a great character, I really love him. I've read SO many of these style of books yet Vaelin was a fresh character for me.
The story moved along at a fantastic pace written very smartly with a 'show not tell' style letting the reader drawing their own conclusions. For me the all the hype is/was worth it and I'm glad I bought all 3 books over the years so now that I'm ready I can read them all at once. Yay!
Also Mark Lawrence writing the cover blurb sold it instantly for me.
Onto Tower Lord next...
