Kalyazin and Tranavia have been at war for a century and now it seems that there may be a chance to end it all. Nadya lives in Kalyazin and she has the gift of speaking to all the gods. She managed to escape when the monastery she lives in is attacked and she teams up with Malachiasz, a boy from Tranavia. Malachiasz may be from Tranavia but, like Nadya - does he want to kill the king of Tranavia and end the war? The real question is, will this fragile alliance manage to hold all the way? Meanwhile, Serefin, a young prince who has spent years fighting is now realizing that the true threat to him is not far away, but at home. READ THE REST OF THE REVIEW OVER AT FRESH FICTION! WOW! This book… I am going to completely fail on this one. Sooooo good. I was blown out of the water by the original world-building and depth, and really great characterizations. Let me apologize in advance for not attempting to spell some of the names… I read via text-to-speech and it sometimes struggles when it comes across non-English names. Nadezhda is a cleric, hidden away in a monastery, and belongs to one of the two warring countries/tribes at battle over religion and blood magic. When the monastery is attacked by Seraphim, the Crown Prince and a powerful blood mage, she is forced to flee. I’m not going to say a lot more without getting into spoilers, but this world is incredibly rich, full of court plotting, a Crown Prince who does terrible things, but you wonder if could be turned back from the dark side (I was getting some Kylo Ren/Darkling vibes), and Vultures, Please excuse typos/name misspellings.
