CorbanHighlights: Cywen, Veradis, Alcyon, Fidele, Tukul, Corban, Farrel, Trigg, Laith, Coralen, Wulf, Camlin, Halion, Edana, Balur – the list can go on and on. And also, the amount of different narratives means we have many differing antagonists, so we can enjoy the conflicted villain, the anti-villain, and the classic evil-doer all in the same narrative.
Oh and one more thing: F#^%

I have my favorite characters and I swear to god if anything happens to them... !!!Â
John Gwynne writes such EPIC action and battle scenes, in my opinion! I struggle to care about those scenes in MANY books, because they often feel tedious. But he manages to make those scenes really come alive for me. There were so many EPIC moments toward the end!Â
