Salt in the Wound by Benjamin Aeveryn
5.0

4.5/5 stars.

Galahad and his friends Lance, Elaine, Percy and Gwyn and Fay are all part of the Round Table, sounds familiar doesn't it? Galahad and the motley crew and treasure hunters in a post-apocalyptic European-inspired setting. And in this apocalypse, there are Rainwights, ethereal figures who appear when it rains and leave no one alive. Entire cities have been built over with permanent structures, the sun never penetrating the core. Some structures aren't so lucky and rely on canvas to keep the rain off.

"Guilt, anger, longing, hope. Conflicting feelings snarled together like a child's messy, unbrushed hair. Their words a comb they ran through over and over, splitting the threads, tugging at the knots..."

Galahad is a dreamer, one that was so trusting that he never saw betrayal coming. Set on delving into the mysteries of the Old World, he didn't see what was right in front of him. This is a story of betrayal and revenge. Those he held closest turned foe, who will he be at the end? There is still so much more to Galahad's story and I'm eagerly awaiting more.

"The truth can disarm us all."
