I received this book as an ARC from the author for an honest review. 

I am pleased to say that this book reminds me of some of my favorite stories. I see inspiration in many of the characters from a variety of sources, but this story is 100% original and a great pleasure to read!

The world and backstory are well laid out and the prose is wonderfully smooth and polished. The author has created some dark characters, describes battles with a wonderful skill, and presents us with some excellent twists to the tale. 

This book is a classic epic fantasy with modern storytelling and dark characters. The author’s style reminds me in various ways of some of my favorite authors, like John Gwynne and Joe Abercrombie. 

This book releases on May 29, 2024, so go pre-order it right now! Highly recommended!!!
