The unladylike explicative that burst from my lips upon the
realization that this book was over says it all. However it is not a word used
in polite company and I will therefore leave it to your imagination. This book
is an edge of your seat kind of incredible ride unlike any others you have
taken before. The range of the cast of characters is immense and includes
werewolves, faeries, necromancers, and an occasional god or two amongst many
many more. I have no idea how Asher keeps up with this crazy cast or how they
all live peaceably in his head.
This book is catnip for the imagination with its intricate descriptions of the
characters, the battles, and the death of a beloved character which I will
obviously not reveal because I don't want to spoil it for you. This book is
truly a work of art for the mind of the reader.
All of the characters are so well developed with extensive
and unique back stories which could really appear into novelettes with a snap
of Asher's fingers (HINT HINT) These characters are a beautiful representation
of an amazing world created by the mind of an incredibly gifted wordsmith who
is very dedicated to his craft. I would love to hang out with these guys if it
were magically possible.
If you are into syfy, adventure, fantasy, world
of warcraft, gaming, dungeons and dragons, mythology, or if you just really
want a good action packed read with a touch of comedy woven through it then
this is absolutely the book for you. I will further go on to say, that this
book is an awesome read for anyone.
