The Starless Crown by James Rollins
5.0
4.5 stars
Epic Fantasy at it best ! Excellent well developed characters, multilayered world, mystery and intense action. This was my first read from this author and I can’t wait for more.
The story starts with a shock of a beginning. I gasped, had to stop and just stare at the wall thinking about it. The characters all started in different parts of this world, connected with thin threads slowly thickening, twisting and finally snapping for many. Yep, hold on this author like to kill characters, characters that I enjoyed. Ouch it hurt, I was invested in them. There were no miracle unbelievable savings, it was as it would be in that world. I loved that. He stayed true to the rules of that world through the story.
Kings, princes, peasants, animals, magical beings, pirates, myths and a possible apocalypse or….? It has a lot going on, it works.
It ended with a cliffhanger, a light one. I need to read the next book but i’m not sweating bullets to get it.
