Description

The first in the “powerful” (SFFWorld.com) New York Times bestselling fantasy series.

Vaelin Al Sorna was only a child of ten when his father left him at the iron gate of the Sixth Order to be trained and hardened to the austere, celibate and dangerous life of a warrior of the Faith. He has no family now save the Order.
 
Vaelin’s father was Battle Lord to King Janus, ruler of the Unified Realm—and Vaelin’s rage at being deprived of his birthright knows no bounds. Even his cherished memories of his mother are soon challenged by what he learns within the Order.
 
But one truth overpowers all the rest: Vaelin Al Sorna is destined for a future he has yet to comprehend. A future that will alter not only the Realm but the world.

    Great world-building, fantastic insight into politics, war, and religion, and characters that hooked me instantly. Stayed up late (repeatedly) to read it and then couldn’t stop thinking about it. Highly recommend.

  • I neglected responsibilities…

    I expected this to be a good tale. It was. I missed a few days of work while reading it because I failed to sleep. It’s very good… plan accordingly.

  • Okay, not great

    I really had high hopes for this book based on the amazing reviews, but honestly I didn’t enjoy it all that much. The beginning and end had me hooked, but everything in the middle ended up feeling rather tedious and lackluster.

  • Excellent

    I love this genre but I've never heard of this series until I found it randomly... What a jewel to stumble on. Excellent read beginning to end. Can't wait to start the second book

    Story is very well written. Picked the book up and couldn’t stop until I was done. Character development is slow and very thought out, you really get a sense of the characters. The world building is also very good, though it’ll have to take a lot of remembering to understand everything fully. One of my top 3 books for sure.

  • Get it

    Top 5 fantasy books of all time for me love it maybe top 10 overall

  • Excellent Book- Terrible Series

    This is a good read, put simply. The classic development of a warrior who doesn’t wield a magical solution and also isn’t thrust into a pedantic world where “Good” doesn’t exist, everyone is evil at heart. And no “spice-it-Up” sex scenes. At least until the unfortunate sequels. One of those excellent first-in-a-series-that-falls-apart

  • hands down a great book!!
