A review by grmatthews
The Winter Road by Adrian Selby
5.0
There is such a clear sense of character that by the time you get to the letters (no spoilers) at the end, you are dragged, never wanting it to be over, through a bitter-sweet, heart-aching ending that you'll be left with a book hangover.
The world is clearly built; plants and recipes, governments and politics.
The action is fierce and unforgiving; characters die... lots of them and not all deaths, as it should be, are noble but each chips a little more away from your soul.
If you've read Snakewood you'll get a lot from this se/prequel - if you haven't read Snakewood, it doesn't matter, jump in and enjoy (knowing you going to be put through the wringer as you do).
