Dawn of the Lightbearer by Scott A Tirrell 4/5
An epic tale! This book is populated by a cast of characters who are entertaining and flawed. From the sewers of Grafton Notch to the final shipwreck at the end, this story is unpredictable. Focusing more on stories within the world of Lucardia, rather than the usual sword action (though there is some of that too!), this is a different take on the fantasy epic. Well worth a read for all fantasy lovers. I’m looking forward to reading the next in the series!
