This series contains many of my favorite elements such as a variety of creeds/religions, brothers, politics, monarchy, gore, and addiction.
This is the sequel to **Blood Song** in the **Raven's Shadow Trilogy**. I think it could be read as a stand alone, but I surely appreciated exposition and development from the first book. I am excited to finish the series soon.
Michael J Sullivan comments on a book cover, "A new Master Storyteller has hit the seen." I can see inspirational elements in Anthony Ryan's style pulled from MJS.
It's 3rd Person POV multi perspective. This is my absolute favorite type of POV. There are many major characters, but the ultimately main character is Vaelin Al Sorna.
I love the characters. All characters grow and develop with their own exposition.
Although there are many plots within the plot, there is no climate that puts me on the edge of my seat. There are many surprises, but there are no shell shocking plot twists, tears, or white knuckling.
