Band of brothers is my kind of epic fantasy, and this debut is a winner. A great coming of age tale with strong characterization and word building. Anthony Ryan might be a new favorite! 🗡🗡🗡🗡🗡

Took me a little longer to finish, but this book was so good! Magic, politics, intrigue, forbidden love. Definitely a 5⭐️ read.

Still working on Blood Song while battling a reading slump. So I decided to organize my bookshelves and add two more of them. Took most of the day to build them and then stick them. But I am loving the way my room is turning out!

Summer TBR because I have a hard time doing a monthly TBR. I‘m a mood reader for sure.

Found this little gem at my local 2nd and Charles for less than $2! I had a nice little haul today. Super excited to read this one, in fact I may just start it tonight.

Really not in the mood for another epic fantasy. I used to love epic fantasy and now its just an investment I'm not willing to make...

TheAromaofBooks I know, right? Sometimes I pick up an epic fantasy & just think, Wow this looks like so much work! 😂 4y

Bloody amazing! Pun intended. I have fallen in love with the brilliant story-telling ability of the writer. The way he captures your attention, the way he makes you lost in the deeply and well-thought through world... I cannot express how much I enjoyed Vaelin's coming of age story and cannot wait to see how it continues. The battle scenes are epic, the friendships strong and the deaths heart-breaking. It couldn't get any better!

TrishB Loved this series too 👍🏻 5y
PaulaNovotna @TrishB Can't wait to start on the next one! 5y

Far better than I expected! For a self-published debut, this was very readable. There were some flaws in storytelling, but I liked it

Who knew that all it would take to get me out of my book funk would be a damaged teen in a world of killing and death, fighting demons of his own making?

This is from book one in the Raven's Shadow trilogy by Anthony Ryan. It feels like Game of Thrones, but it moves faster, has more outward magic, and has the incredible benefit of being complete and published. I love these books! #mapsinbooks #somethingforsept

So I'm a bit late reviewing this but here goes;
The story centres around a young boy named Vaelin who is left at the walls of the Sixth Order before he hits puberty. He is taught to fight and how to survive, building as he goes companionships with his fellow brothers.
I loved it. Never a dull moment, this book made me laugh, cry and had me at the edge of my seat.
Highly Recommended!

Absolutely loved this book, from the first to the last. An amazing epic adventure and a great hero. So many times when I was reading, a line would stop me and I'd just have to breathe it in.

It's been a while since I read high fantasy and I'm loving it! Takes me back to my teen years before I tried to expand my reading habits! The prologue had me hooked. Only about 100 pages in thus far....

I love when a book gives you characters to both love and hate, choices you understand why they chose it but wish they hadn't, and an ending you had no idea what was coming. Thanks, Anthony Ryan.
