The Ember Blade by Chris Wooding

5.0

First 5 star book of the year. While it starts of a little formulaic, this book soars near the end after the adventure you have had with all the characters. The emotional ending of the last 100 pages is what solidifed this for me. Even without a sequel, it ends in a satisfying way that emotionally pays off well.
