Why read it?
1 author picked The Heresy Within as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Grimdark fantasy is a favourite of mine, full of morally ambiguous, vivid characters. The Heresy Within is a great example of this.
Yes, there is a fascinating world and enticing plot. But these are characters who are just fun to spend time with. The author pulls no punches in this series, so if dark storylines are not your thing, pick a different recommendation.
From Jamie's list on dark characters, dark sorcery, or dark age history.
