I'm almost done with Michelle Wst's The Uncrowned King, second volume in the Sun Sword sequence, and this series continues to amaze me! I think it's QuickTidal who was pimping this author and I can't believe I've waited this long to finally read it!
I've been reviewing novels on the Hotlist for nearly two decades, and two installments into a fantasy series only three of them were as good as the Sun Sword: George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire, Steven Erikson's The Malazan Book of the Fallen, and Jacqueline Carey's Kushiel sequence. I kid you not, this is some seriously good stuff!
You can read my review of the first installment, The Broken Crown, here.
I believe that lots of Malazan fans in particular could really get into this series. It's different in style and scope, but there are some similarities such as getting thrown into a story in the middle of it, with sprawling and multilayered worldbuilding, and complex characters with fascinating backstories that are unveiled gradually.
Deserves the highest possible recommendation.
Great series and GREAT volume. Prepare yourself for THE SHINING COURT...it's next level (And I'm only 1/4 of the way through!)
Glad you're enjoying it Pat.Also, if you're ever in Toronto, go visit Bakkaphoenix Books where Michelle still part-times, she's really nice and signed all my copies of her books.
100% agreed! I diligently await her updates on Patreon for news about the new books.
QT, I thought you had read all of the published books in the series, non?
Ah no, I'm still working my way through the series, I started with the first 3 House War books, and then dove into Sun Sword (of which there are 6) before I get back to the rest of House War, so I've read 5 of the books, and I'm about 1/4 into the 6th of the overall series.
You have some great stuff awaiting you! -

Sigh. Even though I finished this on a reread recently, I could use the pickmeup I get from LOTR, and I just completed getting my hardcover Harper Collins collection versions of these that completes my collection, so I’m going to catch up…where is everybody?
I think it's just Tiste and I that have started. I finished A Knife in the Dark last night and plan to read Flight to the Ford today.
I'm in too! Frontdoor and Arable and the rest of the Bobbits just made it to Rivendell
