After the King is killed in a coup, Dev his son is on the run to gain allies. With him is a Silversword, Vaelor and a fire mage, Fig. On their journey, they find unlikely friends and help from different magical beings/races. There's also a lot of trouble and of course, they're being chased.
I love, love, love Emrah! He's the cutest magical companion/familiar I've ever read about 😍
The sassiness mixed with his courage made him my favorite member of this motley crew.
That there are Dryads in this book made it even better. I really love reading about them and they seldomly play a bigger part in most fantasy stories, but here you encounter Fenra, Vilvan, El (Fenra's brother) and some others from their gathering. They're great side characters with a lot of potential and I enjoyed their storylines a lot.
My favorite part was the final battle and the revelations during these chapters. I was actually surprised when I thought I already knew everything and the author dropped the bomb.
This is a great epic fantasy story with a little romance on the side😊
