Since time immemorial, humans have worshipped the gods they call Fhrey, truly a race apart: invincible in battle, masters of magic, and seemingly immortal. But when a god falls to a human blade, the balance of power between humans and those they thought were gods changes forever.

Now only a few stand between humankind and annihilation: Raithe, reluctant to embrace his destiny as the God Killer; Suri, a young seer burdened by signs of impending doom; and Persephone, who must overcome personal tragedy to lead her people. The Age of Myth is over. The time of rebellion has begun

Forgot we had this set! I'm 9 chapters in and absolutely loving this. The chracters are amazing!

If you enjoy his book do try out The Crown Tower C.P..... it's the first book in the Rirya Chronicles and it's absolutely amazing

My plan is to read all of them. I have Theft of Swords, and was going to start there, but then I was approved for Age of Swords on Netgalley and decided to start this one instead. So far I'm loving it!

Have you read this one?

Through chapter 14. Very much liking this. The world and characters are great.

(view spoiler)[Here's a line I really liked: "Hands could be such expressive things." Hands are generally something I notice when I meet people, so I thought this was interesting.

I want to know how Arion is going to tie in. I know she's going after Nyphron, now I just need to know what happens when she gets there. (hide spoiler)]

Through chapter 16.

(view spoiler)[Ok, does Grin have some hold on Maeve and Konneger? How are they connected?

And what will Arion do when she wakes up? What is the tree telling them?

And I feel like Nyphron and Malcolm must know each other somehow...there seems to be a connection there, I just don't know what. (hide spoiler)]

Through chapter 22. (view spoiler)[That has to br hard for Persephone, hearing what Reglan did. And really? He abandoned a baby in the woods? He should have sent them both away. Not killed the child!

And if the bear isn't the child, what's going on? Obviously they have to folliw Minna, but where will that get them? Gonna go read more! (hide spoiler)]

Just read the first three chapters. I still believe this is a very solid start. No time wasted to set things up, they just start happening. (view spoiler)[Raithe is my favorite at this point. I like that he's a good person who came from such a harsh background. Loved the scene with him and Malcolm and the story.

Persephone and Sufi both have potential at this point. And I really like the snippets from The Book of Brin. (hide spoiler)]

I just finished chapter five. I'm picking up on some interesting little details this time around. (view spoiler)[And who is Tilos (or however his name is spelled)? I'm really curious about that. And hair interferes with their use of magic? Odd. (hide spoiler)]

I just finished chapter 7. (view spoiler)[I have questions about Malcolm. I find him really entertaining, but I want some answers about his background. Why doesn't he know anything about the other humans?

I like Suri. She's odd, but a lot of fun.

I'm not sure about Konniger and Tressa. They really rub me the wrong way. (hide spoiler)]

I'm going to be starting this book over the weekend! Sorry I haven't picked it up from the library yet!!

No problem!

Through chapter 16. (view spoiler)[I'm curious about what all of Magda's instructions will mean. (hide spoiler)]

So bizarre.. how I didn't add my comments to this one but only to YA ?? Okay I'm going to find them and then add them

Chapter 6: (view spoiler)[I felt bad for Persephone because no one wants to leave or face the gods. However, I did enjoy her talks with Suri. They are hilarious. (hide spoiler)]
Chapter 12: (view spoiler)[I just don't understand why no one backs up Persephone.. she was married to the previous ruler for years and now all of a sudden she's lower than dirt to these people? So stupid. I think I know who is behind the murder of her husband.. but I'm not one hundred percent sure yet. (hide spoiler)]
Chapter 16: (view spoiler)[I'm a little confused right now because I'm trying to figure out how everyone and everything is connected.. (hide spoiler)]
Chapter 24: (view spoiler)[And the mastermind asshole is.... *drum roll* ... KONNEGER (hide spoiler)]
Finished: (view spoiler)[Interesting ending. I still feel bad for Suri and Persephone but I'm really hoping I get more of Suri in the next book - I really liked that character. Malcolm's plans were interesting enough but he kind of bored me as well. Will definitely dive into the second book if I ever get my hands on it. (hide spoiler)]

Will check spoilers when I'm on my computer.

Just read chapter 21. (view spoiler)[Mawyndule is not headed in a good direction. I like how his character is handled though, because I think he could be turned into a better path but so far that isn't happening.

Sufi going after Grin doesn't seem good. I wonder how she has the Art. Very curious. A room kind of annoys me at times, though overall I like her character. (hide spoiler)]
