I am not a fantasy reader, but this story is captivating! I love the mythological feel to it, with magic and adventure and honor and sacrifice. It’s pretty easy to follow, which is about the highest compliment I can pay a fantasy book, and the characters are beautifully rendered. Can’t wait to read book 2!
