Lost Blades by Liz Sauco
5.0
Lost Blades by Liz Sauco is the first book in the Blades by the Goddess series. It is a perfect blend of Fantasy and Fiction, with a little mythology, a lot of magic and some modern day technology.
It is as much a statement of how modern day technology has all but obliterated the belief in magic and how the coexistence of both is a struggle at the least, and how the struggles of finding oneself and walking the path laid out for you, where even though it sometimes feels like you have no options, there is always a choice.
I loved this book, the writing style, elaborate world and character building and love the mentions of small nuances and traits, like the ears of an Avari showing the emotion the person is feeling, they droop, twitch, perk up, etc. There is a switching of perspectives every few chapters between Takeshi and Jamirh, our MMC’s, but it is not confusing or distracting. The story lines slowly weave together and I really like how you get involved and taken through their journeys with them.
I really enjoyed reading this book and will be looking out for the second one. It’s a five star read for me!
Thanks to the author Liz Sauco for giving me the opportunity to read this ARC, my opinions are my own and my review is voluntarily.
