Promise of Blood by Brian McClellan
Chasing Graves by Ben Galley
My rating: 3.75 of 5 stars
A big thanks to Ben Galley for providing an ARC of Chasing Graves, in exchange for an honest review.
Spoiler-free review. Please note that the quotes in this review are taken from the ARC edition and may change in the published edition.
When Ben Galley revealed the cover of Chasing Graves and after hearing that it was an Egyptian mythology-inspired fantasy, I knew I had to read the book. My only experience with Galley’s writing before CG was with The Heart of Stone and it was a book I very much enjoyed because of its writing, atmosphere, philosophy and the humanity and depth he insufflated in his not quite human main character. Knowing that, I had the feeling I would embark in a deep and atmospheric reading journey with Chasing Graves and I’m happy to say I wasn’t wrong.
Theft of Swords by Michael J. Sullivan
My rating: 3.75 of 5 stars
Riyria Revelations is without a doubt one of my favorite Fantasy series and one that I will revisit again and again in the future. I think I can safely say this is the kind of series that gets better with each book. I thought that the first time I read it and I completely agree with my younger self on this point.
Theft of Swords is divided into 2 books: The Crown Conspiracy and Avempartha.
