All the Paths of Shadow by Frank Tuttle
2.0
This book kept being recommended to me and it was cheap so I decided to try it out.
The story was okay, a little slow at first, but it got better. The world building needed a hand. It seemed like the author had a good idea but then couldn't get it off the ground so he borrowed a lot from the present (i.e. newspaper names, cultures, accents, food, history). It was set on Earth, but not Earth.
Meralda is okay, but her relationship with the king is odd. She works for him, but has no respect for him even though he comes across as a decent guy.
