Readers have compared this series to The Wheel of Time, Lord of the Rings, The Belgariad & A Game of Thrones. “This quest to retrieve a stolen religious relic ticked so many of the boxes that got me into fantasy in the first place: an epic quest, a cast of diverse characters, swords and sorcery, otherworldly landscapes, strange creatures. Couple all this with a world which has a detailed history replete with political rifts, feuds and machinations, there is a lot going on. I especially liked the mix of characters, each bring their own skills and personalities to the party” CF Welburn, Author of The Ashen Levels
