Blood Eye by Giles Kristian

dark mysterious tense medium-paced

 Raven: Blood Eye is the beginning of a trilogy about a boy named Raven found when he was only a small boy and he has no memory of where he came from. This is a mystery on its own. I really liked the coming of age story of Raven although it was a bit quicker at times as i was expecting. Having read the prequel trilogy, i was eager to get back to Sigurd. I loved him in the Rise of Sigurd books - what a great man and warrior but it was also apparent that Raven was written first - in small little details.
I am not so connected to Raven as I want it to be but i am hoping that changes in book 2.
So far I am loving the world, politics. Characters are alright here too. I know Mr Kristian can do it better but i am cutting some slack cause this was the first trilogy, if i am not mistaken and so room for improvment.
Usually i am way more emotionally connected to the characters of his books - so i have hope for that.
All in all nice start to the trilogy.
