Age of Swords: Book Two of The Legends of the First Empire | 
pickI enjoyed this second book of The Legends of the First Empire series. Part political machinations, part Tolkien style adventure. It was a lot of fun, and I‘m sure if I had read the author‘s previous series I would be even more connected. As this is book 2 I don‘t want to go into detail, but I really am enjoying this traditional medieval high fantasy series and look forward to continuing the series. 4⭐️
#doublespin done! #bookspinbingo too!
Yes I love audiobooks. Probably about 65% of my reading is listening. I love the dramatic readings and being able to multitask while I enjoy books.
I especially love epic fantasy on audio, currently listening to tagged!

pickI really like the dramatized Audiobook versions GraphicAudio has made of this series so far!
This series is ok so far, not great but not terrible. Definitely things that annoy me throughout but it has potential and I keep hoping it will get better 🤞🏻🤷🏻♀️
To DNF or not to DNF, that is the question 😬
Edit: I finished book 2 but I still don‘t see what everyone else seems to. I‘ll try book 3 but if that is still meh then I‘m done with TLOTFE series 😒

pickRaithe and Malcolm remain with Pesephone and try to return some kind of order to the small village of Dahl Rhen. However, other forces are determined to make this a difficult task sending giants and storms to destroy a home of centuries. As their first female Cheiftan, Persephone knows that something needs to be done to protect herself and her people. But the question is what will they do and who will lead them?
Half way through. Impossible to put down tonight. Persephone has ended up with a band of women misfits with a variety of talents and purposes. Things are quite ominous at this point.

Not what I had expected in the least! But fabulous all the same. Simple things are only simple once the knowledge is understood... Or something like that! Watching Roan invent things is quite amusing 😝😁👍📚📖

Recently it has been waaay too hot for my usual reading walks in the park, but it wasn't too bad today so I ventured outside with my book in hand! 🤗💕📚 Everything is so lush and green and beautiful! 🌾💖
It was a bit hot and humid at the park today, but the frequent breezes made it totally worth it! 🤗📚💕

I'll be the forest's man and greet the sun,
And feel the silence blossom on my tongue
like language."

I found a new path at the park today! 💕🌿 It leads up, up, up, and even deeper into the forest! So cool! And now I have new places to read! 😀💕📚
Still chipping away at this one. It's taking me longer to actually finish a book right now cuz I have 5,648 of them going at once right now. 😅
I'm nearing the home stretch on it though and I've really been enjoying it.
Its very much a classic fantasy story with a modern feel about it. Super happy I started this series! 🤘
Only chapter 7... But it just cemented itself as a 5-star book for me. 🙆♂️
There was no crazy fight scene or startling revelation. No plot twist or unexpected character reveal. It was, really, just an interlude chapter of people being human to one another.
It reached out & it touched me and fuck a duck I'm so glad I'm a reader!
Words are magic, hey!? ❤️

4. Yes. 🤔
Disclaimer: There are no giant kittens with laser beams shooting out of their eyes in this book. I just added that for fun.
...
Although, this is only chapter 2 so I suppose anything is possible? 🤷♂️
Gonna sneak book 2 in before my Indigo orders get here later this week!
I was gonna hold off on starting it but I can't get the story from book 1 outta my head!
🤷♂️
pickThis book is so good!!!!!

I‘m going to use this for my #BBRC as well but I‘m starting it now so I‘ll wait until I‘m finished reading it first 📖😋

pickThis book is a continuation in the Legends of the First Empir The story has action adventure, manipulation, and romance. What more can you ask for? I really like how the women (young and old) were the ones with all the brains, and they saved the day. There was also a bit of intrigue at the end, which definitely sets the stage for the next book. This book has action, intrigue, and humor. I am looking forward to the next one in the series.

re: story written in stone tablets
So much eye rolling so far in this book. They're only just inventing writing and the wheel? And yet while the dwarves are talking about mixing tin and copper and metallurgy, they're all "haha yeah I totes know what you're saying"? Nyphron is seriously going to side with a group of vermin that had a wheel in their midst ALL THIS TIME BUT DIDNT KNOW WHAT IT COULD DO? Hmph.
