Audible4,5 starsI'm normally not a fantasy reader. But I heard a lot about this book, and when I read the blurb, it just took hold of me:TWO MEN WHO HATE EACH OTHER. ONE IMPOSSIBLE MISSION. A LEGEND IN THE MAKING.I know, I read too many MMs, it is why TWO MEN... has a different meaning for me. But...

It had been awhile since I read The Riyria Revelations series, but when I started reading this book I felt as if I was back among old friends. The Riyria Chronicles takes us back to a time before The Riyria Revelations. We find out how Hadrian Blackwater and Royce Melborn first met (a lot of head-...

This is the first book of the Riyria Chronicles series which is a prequel to the most excellent Riyria Revelations series.

This is the first of a series that accompanies another series, as a prequel, and although the author says it's fine to read in chronological order, I suspect I would have enjoyed it better if I'd read the other series first. As it is, it was heading into a solid 4, until the last quarter, which fe...

Fantasy Review BarnPrequels are difficult. Fans already know everything that happens down the line, so it’s hard to create enough tension and uncertainty (It’s a battle! Will they survive??? Um, sure they will. Oh.). The characters are established, but there has to be enough information for new read...
