Anyone who has read Gwynne before will know that his characterisation is superb, his books populated by characters that readers genuinely care about.
She’s earned her place on my favourites list and I can’t see anyone moving her (I’d like to see them try). One of the three main voices in the book and one of the greatest fantasy characters of all time (yep, I’m making that call).
Now that the intro is out of the way, let me get to the subject I really wanted to talk about: Orka. What was once a perilous place has just become even more deadly… Now the jarls are upping the ante, vying for the spot at the top, and there are some shadowy figures plotting to seize an even grander prize. When the high stakes competition for relics, money, and power means that you’re up against other highly-trained mercs, short of nothing but gold and morals, then it’s do or die. Plus a war band of extremely dangerous friends so you never have to tackle bloody murder and life’s mayhem alone. And to thrive? Well, that takes a hell of a lot more. In a world shattered by divine anger and jealousy, it takes everything you have to survive. Living in the shadow of dead Gods isn’t easy.
